Just start with: Tier 1 = handpicked mirrors using the instant sync thing; tier 2 = everything else. > How we syndicate is (a) easy if we just use the old MIRRORED.BY that old > clients support and (b) half-easy if we have a new way to publish information > that future > clients can support. For new clients I'd really like if we put the discovery mechanism on a separate hostname from the regular mirrors (a copy of the files should be on the mirrors, too). Related notes: would it make sense to sign the (timestamped) list of mirrors?
