Okay, I will make sure they are both notified about this list. I believe
Chris is already on it, and I remember hearing from Mathew at some point,
but I don't have any saved mail him.

I was thinking of having an ftp site and maybe an rsync server. That way,
you could download the whole thing and then just use rsync to keep your
local copy upto date. Both would have passwords on them to keep things
semi-private for now. I'm not ready to have everyone downloading this stuff.
I'll probably have to find some space on ftp.freesoftware.com or maybe on
the new slackware.com box (that we still haven't moved to yet :) I would
just say that people can download it from over my dsl connection, but that
isn't fast enough.
One thing - try to CC: the list whenever you reply to a mail unless you want
it to be private.
