<PRE>Hi,
As we are getting closer to actually have something to mirror it's time
to get this decided.
And the deadline for theese discussions is December 5th, 2010 in
order to get a decision on the board meeting on December 6th, 2010.
Now this is a somewhat problematic topic but needs to be decided.
This has already been discussed in two threads:
First off we have the "basic) part:
"Mirror tree structure" by Olivier Thauvin
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/20101020/001286.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/20101020/001286.html</A>
And the other part (that gives some problems):
"Mageia repository sections, licenses, restrictions, firmware etc" by
Anssi Hannula.
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/20101012/001084.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/20101012/001084.html</A>
Now, in order to get somewhere, here is a suggestion that tries to find
a middle ground or base for discussions...
Now this toplevel part seems to be ok by everyone:
------
Mageia/
/distrib/
/cauldron/
/stable1/
/iso/
/cauldron/
/i586/
/srpms/
/x86_64/
/stable1/
/people/
/software/
------
Then we come to the "problematic" part:
------
/x86_64/
/media/
/codecs/ (disabled by default)
/core/ (old main+contrib)
/backports/ (disabled by default)
/backports_testing/ (disabled by default)
/release/
/testing/ (disabled by default)
/updates/
/extra/ (unmaintained, disabled by default)
/firmware/ (disabled by default)
/games/ (disabled by default)
/non-free/ (disabled by default)
/debug_*/ (disabled by default)
-----
The idea of this layout with some of the separate sections (codecs,
firmware, games, non-free, debug_*) gives a mirror maintainer in a
country (or company) the option to exclude the parts they legally (or by
company policy) can not mirror.
The "core" should be only maintained free/libre stuff so it's easy to
build a free/libre iso
"extra" is for those packages that no-one really maintain, but is still
used by someone
"games" are now a separate repo since it can grow fast with a lot of
game data.
So,
Comments / Thoughts...
