Since mirrors are synced twice a day, there's probably no need (any more) to have an apt-gettable repository of binaries. But it would be useful for auto-builders of non-official archives to have a repository of sources. Providing this as an official service would be better otherwise people will work around it because they need it. http://people.debian.org/~aurel32/incoming.html AFAIK, this apt-get repository of source already exists but it's somehow restricted for buildd only. I don't see any reason to not open that access. Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog Premier livre français sur Debian GNU/Linux : http://www.ouaza.com/livre/admin-debian/
