 There seems to be a thread about rsync and Debian packages every
 couple of months.  I've written up a document which tries to cover all
 of the questions and debates.  It's pretty informal, but hopefully
 will be useful.

 I'd appreciate comments.

Seems good.

It'd be nice if there were links to details about how the reverse rsync
algorythm in used, tho.

Also, I've had this idea, to use rdiff to generate the checksums, on the
server.  If rdiff supported a reverse rsync algo(it currently doesn't), then
it would make integration with other tools simplistic(thing a wrapper around
wget and rdiff).

 I think some more details is required regarding rproxy.

 Why is nobody actively developing it?

 AFAIK, it solves all the problems regarding server load discussed in
 rsync, doesn't it???

No.  I tested it out, and it still hits the server hard.
