We could make one on the same model as http://www.debian.org/volatile/ (BTW I wonder if this shold be ranged under a specific section, like distrib) Can someone draft a page from the current backports.org content ? About backports mirrors, that may be similar to what we have on http://teubr.eu.org/~spaillar/debian/webwml/english/mirror/backports.en.html Indeed, http://www.backports.org/debian/README.mirrors.html is deprecated, info is now stored by standard Mirrors.masterlist. -- Simon Paillard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
