+ * {{{cvsup.nl.freebsd.org}}} is the local dutch cvsup mirror, replace `nl` with your proper country code. An alternative way to update sources is svn, possibly with a symlink for use of different releases, e.g.:
+   {{{
+   $ svn co http://svn.freebsd.org/base/release/8.2.0/ /usr/src-release-8.2.0
+   $ ln -s /usr/src-release-8.2.0 /usr/src
+   }}} 
  * It seems tempting to follow {{{/usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile}}} instead of {{{/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile}}} please __DO NOT__ unless your like big trouble as stable-supfile is the stable __DEVELOPMENT__ branch e.g. upcoming stable.
