Speaking of ftp messages and pkg_add; I use 
ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/i386/ as PKG_PATH
and i get a lot of huge messages when adding packages.
Example blob:
===========
Error from ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/i386/:

     And this server is also certified as one of official download server
     by many projects.

     Eclipse mirror had been choked from Sep. 4 until Oct. 7.
     It recovered and synchronizes with the master site now.
     We are sorry for your inconvenient.
=========

It's a bit annoying since output from pkg_add scrolls by like lightning but it 
doesnt seem to affect pkg_add functionality on any way. I'm not sure this can 
be fixed other than letting the site maintainers know and ask them not to do 
this.
