It was meant mainly as a question to re@ and ftp-master folks - whether they are interested in things I proposed, or not. Then we can think about real realization (= re@ and ftp-master folks will be the users of proposed system), or we can forget it (there are not any possible users). > they're the users of that box but they'd prefer it if they did > not need to know how it works or tinker around in it. They do not need to know the internals - they just can run some commands with informational output, like if they can upload new things, or they would rather wait some time until previous datas are distributed. So at first, my proposals really need the express from re@ and ftp-master folks, if they would like to use proposed things. > the only issue IMO would be getting enough sites to buy > in at the Tier-1 level and I have no idea right now > if that's easy or hard. Hopefully it's easy. :-) If there would be a problem with small starting number of mirror sites, we can call new class of mirrors Tier-0 and Tier-1/Tier-2 leave as they are (aren't). However, I still would prefer some policy, so that ftp-master is not overloaded in any case. -- > Does anyone (Cejka in particular :-) see a problem with that? Wow :o) Problem is solved - I have found option realname in mutt, so that I'm allowed to switch the order of my names to the correct order... :o) -- Rudolf Cejka http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/~cejkar Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information Technology Bozetechova 2, 612 66 Brno, Czech Republic
