I thought bitsavers.trailing-edge.com was the primary Bitsavers site, and
the mirrors did their synchronization off this one.

But then there have been no updates on the primary site for something like
a month and a half. So I was idly checking the mirrors yesterday, and
discovered that updates to them haven’t stopped. I assume they get their
updates via rsync, so clearly the primary web server has somehow become
decoupled from the primary rsync server.

I see Al has made some comments on the home page. Perhaps he has changed
the way rsync works. I use his RSS feeds to check for updates.
