One of these things would be how we would push files on the mirror? If we keep master_sites we could use something like `port fetch all' in a cronjob or in a post-commit hook. But that will have the problem that it currently port fetch will not remove old distfiles. So this would need improvement. Alternatively committers would have to upload there files manually which would be more work for them and also more error-prone. And I think we should move this discussion to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rainer _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-dev
