Hi,
1) I've been thinking, perherps we should only mirror the latest distribution and
ISO images(old and new) for Mandrake. Bandwidth is a real problem at the moment
and we also should not be trying to mirror the entire linux world. At a later
date, if we get the hardware, then we can always upgrade. Comments?
2) Who exactly is in charge of mirrors? Alf says he can do it, but Johnny is
in-charge, who else is doing it? This is most confusing. Also, there seem to be
two type ogf mirrors : a) sites (eg KDE) and ftp that we are going for.
