Security packages in Ubuntu
Dear LazyWeb,
AFAIK Ubuntu is using http://security.ubuntu.com to provide security updates for its packages. What about security section under http://archive.ubuntu.com ? It will be dropped if favor of http://security.ubuntu.com ?
I’ll apreciate any information about that.
Thanks!

AFAIK security updates are distributed to the local mirrors, but mirrors are not guarenteed uptodate.
I’m using my local country mirror (nl.archive) for the security updates.
Please use mailinglist for this question and not planet.u.c.
