IMHO, rsync is not more efficient for mirroring .jigdo/.template files than
http/ftp, because all the data is gzipped. Some more mirrors for the images

So they are! Funny, I could have sworn the .template files used to be

Maybe this feature could be of interest here? I haven't experimented
with the effects myself yet though.

Oh, well. There exists a debian package. So for some of our mirrors it
shouldn't be much of a problem. But I guess that rsync will be the
standard way for some more years.
I didn't even know that cvsup exists in Debian. That's great.
BTW, cvsup uses rsync for transferring

It should be possible to use jigdo-file's -0 switch to switch off
compression. I /guess/ that would make the files rsyncable.
