Not sure how easy that is given the current API; thats the part I was hoping someone familiar with the MP Tcl code could assist with.

I think there needs to be some added API to macports in order to make the engineering a little cleaner server-side, but there hasnt been much discussion yet. So if anyone wants to take the lead on behalf of MacPorts, I'll help/support whatever we come up with for accomplishing the mirroring.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
