This is very much a beta service, so it wont be automatically used by MacPorts just yet. But if you have trouble fetching a distfile, the checksums fail repeatedly, or you need an old distfile, you might try looking here:http://distfiles.macports.org/<portname>/I hope it's not actually <portname> but <dist_subdir> as defined in the port. For most ports, <dist_subdir> will equal <portname> but some ports may override it.Yes, right now its dist_subdir. It'll probably change though to incorporate the category eventually.
People can start relying on the mirror and building it into port1.0 and MPWA and whatever else. The layout will stay with whatever "port mirror" does. The mirroring will be done daily around 1am PDT for all ports regardless of changes to Portfiles.
