I did set up the daily cronjob to check thel.ro for new files. The mirror is available via http:///mirror.hasnoname.de/kde-trinity/ Although i don't really know what i should do with the overlay-files... do you want me to set it up in a git or something? To spread the load randomly between thel.ro and hasnoname.de: create overlay/profiles/repo_name containing overlay-name (i chose kde-trinity, but it's yours so you decicde). then you can create overlay/profiles/thirdpartymirrors containing 1 single line with the following: overlay-name http://mirror.hasnoname.de/kde-trinity/distfiles http://www.thel.ro/distfiles/ Afterward you can use SRC_URI="mirror://overlay-name/${P}.tar.bz2" in the ebuild. Portage will then fetch from official mirrors and fallback to one of the thirdpartymirrors. greetings, Roman -- We are Pentium of Borg. Division is futile.
