Default FreeBSD cvsup servers

CVSup is a software package for distributing and updating source trees from a master CVS repository. Are there any India specific cvsup servers for faster download? Do they have master list?

No one in India hosts FreeBSD mirror, not even IIT (they only host Linux mirror). A mirror list:

Our FreeBSD cusup related tutorial :
  1. FreeBSD cvsup: Update The FreeBSD From Previous Releases Using Source Code
  2. FreeBSD keep ports collection up to date in two easy steps
I recommend portsnap to update ports and CVSUp only for buildworld. You can also use freebsd-update which supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems systems running earlier FreeBSD releases, release candidates, and betas (this will only work if you are not using custom kernel).
