Heading to? I've been doing this stuff since 2007. :) In a typical project I'm consuming 20 to a 200 packages, of which I'm maintaining myself perhaps 5 to 20%. The stuff I use typically isn't in Debian or has a version in Debian I don't want to use. It's working pretty well, but this was a small snag I had recently, and I thought, hey, let's see how to improve things. This is my secondary response a few weeks after the event: the first was of course to fix my project and to contact the author. I now think a special mirror might be the simplest way to solve this, since mirroring infrastructure already exist.
