FreeBSD CVSup network shutting down.

29 September, 2014 by peter@wemm.org | freebsd
The FreeBSD.org CVSup network has received no updates for the last 8 months. 
For the last 4 months the only contents on the cvsup servers was a single 
README.txt file pointing to the archive locations.

It had been previously announced that the infrastructure was being shut down.  
The original planned date was May 31st 2014:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hubs/2014-May/002739.html
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2014-May/001557.html

Most of this has now been completed.  Archived copies are still available in:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/CVS-archive/

It is now time to turn off the remaining services.  Please be aware that cvsup 
is rather persistent - If you have forgotten about cron entries or boot time 
startup scripts, it will not give up easily.

CVSup has served us well, but it is time to move on.
