Thanks Brian (and Dom), yes you can get everything from the one
CVS server now and not bother with the separate international
once, since the US crypto-export laws have been relaxed.

I followed <URL:http://www.uk.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html>
which referenced installing cvsup as a package:

  ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/CVSup/cvsupit.tgz

This package install went through a text menu driven program to
generate my cvsupfile and cvsupfile.intl.  I then had to update
cvsup from <URL:http://people.freebsd.org/~jdp/s1g/> to get the
latest bugfixed version.

I guess someone needs to update this package to have the latest
cvsup release and generate up-to-date config files, any ideas
who I should bug?
