I don't recall what that is offhand, but it's the same as the layout on the official servers, and relative to the right root, the same as the layout on the (nee) Walnut Creek CDROMs. > If I understand it right I should be able to do a make release and then make > that directory available over ftp (the resulting directory).

They give you an opportunity, early in the install process, to specify where you're installing from. Typing in an FTP server is one of your choices.
