Wow! It is in the docs already! I find this "Gentoo Distfiles Mirrowing
System - Overview" worth reading from the user perspective, but the path
to it leads through the developer specific stuff and the title is not
listed in http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/list.xml.
I would get there all by myself reading gradually all the Gentoo
documentation, but this mailing list made that happen sooner :).
