+<PRE>Hi,
+
+You can find here:
+<A HREF="http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/">http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/</A>
+the current mirror tree proposal.
+We now have to discuss it, I think.
+
+Here notes:
+
+The 'mageia_timestamp' is a file updated on the main server every 5
+minutes. It allow to check is a mirror synced or not
+
+Comparing to mandriva there is no more split between devel/stable, all
+distributions goes into distribs/ and all isos file into iso/.
+
+The updates/ tree disapear, avoiding some possible dependencies issues
+in updates rpms.
+
+The peoples/ directory is dedicated to contributors and must allow
+anyone to share files related to the distribution (testing rpms,
+preworks) in an unofficial ways.
+How this can be setup in practice still have to be discuss.
+
+Finally the software/ directory should allow you to distribute the
+tarball (not rpm) for software we do. As soon we do free software people
+must be able to distribute our code in the same way any projects does.
+Replies like &quot;svn is readable&quot; or &quot;we have rpm&quot; is not appropriated.
+
+Now come the question: &quot;what is a valid mirror ?&quot;, eg, what a mirror
+should have as file to be valid ?
+
+I suggest to not give the choice and avoid mistake by saying except
+&quot;peoples&quot; a mirror must respect the whole tree to be valid.
+This mean everything must exists with this structure under the top level
+path.
+This way may avoid issues like mandriva on ibiblio (only 2005 and 2007.1
+seems to exists...)

+
+Comment and idea welcome.
+
+Regards.
