Hi

As you may know, the newest version of Ubuntu (9.10) is scheduled to be
officially released on Thursday, 29 October. To ensure that this release
goes smoothly, we need your help!

      * If you are rsyncing from releases.ubuntu.com please update your
         scripts/cronjobs to rsync from rsync.releases.ubuntu.com ASAP!

      * Please take a moment to verify that your mirror is ready and
         syncing.

      * Set any "releases" mirror (the CD images) to sync every 2 hours.
        (These rsyncs are very small and quick, and you should not 
         notice any increased load on your server.)

   /!\ rsyncing straight from releases.ubuntu.com will stop working
       before the final release /!\

Thank you very, very much for your help spreading Ubuntu, we really
appreciate it!

Cheers,
--
