Thanks for your offer, but for various reasons and for the moment, we think it is better to have everything in the same datacenter. Regarding the mirror, I am not sure that the upload is good enough, but that's up to you. Regarding a buildserver, it is not more complex than a calcul cluster. There is some videos on the subject for Opensuse Build System, and for the Bodhi and Koji from Fedora. You can also look at Mandriva wiki ( like http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Development/Packaging/BuildSystem/Analysis even if obsolete regarding exact implementation, this provides a good analysis ). -- Michael Scherer _______________________________________________ Mageia-dev mailing list [email protected] https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev
