into the FAQ.

20e2ff266e Update the FAQ.
Is there anyone who could give me an account on a faster-than-20-bytes-per
second line to the US (not EBONE) ? I'm having too many problems connecting
to freefall to do commits... It would be better if it could be a ssh-protected
account, that would give a strong authentication.

The RENATER line (and thus EBONE) is almost dead for remote login after
10AM european time... :-(

Thanks in advance.

12ac18d2ae Major overhaul of the FAQ. I've added several contributions
specially from Darryl Okahata. I've rewritten several URL to the proper
<url url="" name=""> tag. There is still room for improvement but it
should be closer to 2.0.5R now. I'll try to be faster for future updates...

7a5f061be2 The securedist outside the USA have changed a great deal.
The site in Island has only the 1.1-RELEASE dist.
The previous South Africa sites are dead and the brasilian one
is very hard to get into and painfully slow.
The two South Africa sites come from MIRROR.SITES.
