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

</I>><i>
</I>><i> Comment and idea welcome.

i didn't follow the whole previous discussion about the mirror tree, but would
it be advisable to have a noarch subdir, next to i586 and x86_64 ?
it would mean that if you use i586, you'd need noarch too; and the same thing
with x86_64; but imo, the setup might use a little less storage or it'd be
easier set up; and less hacks required?
if you'd do a dual arch CD; you could easily have noarch, i586 and x86_64 next
to eachother; imo.
also, if we split up more packages to use noarch for content stuff or xxx-doc
subpackages or whatever...
