It is slightly easier if you find a mirror with tarballs.  At least
the Australian mirror generates these weekly, which means that you can
get the bulk of -current by ftp, and then keep up with sup.

Is there any interest in setting up CTM to deliver changes?  (CTM is a
tool Poul-Henning Kamp wrote as an alternative to sup.)  It generates
(very small) diffs which are suitable for mailing.

There is some documentation on www.freebsd.org.

I've been using it for a while to track the FreeBSD CVS tree and it
seems very reliable.
