I think he was more concerned about traffic or duplicate load.

If it's just a question about putting a stratum 1 server in the pool or not, I agree, no purpose really not too.

If it's about duplicate load vs your stratum 2 server, I would say, just let the stratum 2 sync from your stratum 1, if they are at the same location.

If they are at different locations and using different connections to the internet, I would probably put both in, unless the internet connection was unreliable or you didn't want to load down your home connection.

Why not?

There's a decent number of stratum 1 servers in the pool actually:

mysql> select stratum,count(*) from servers where deletion_on is null and servers.score_raw > 5 group by stratum having count(*)>5;
+---------+----------+
| stratum | count(*) |
+---------+----------+
|       1 |      126 |
|       2 |     1281 |
|       3 |      538 |
|       4 |       28 |
+---------+----------+
4 rows in set (0.02 sec)


The question. Who would like to recommend what to do with this thing?
I'm thinking it would be a decent upstream for the pool but given that
I've got a stratum2 already serving time I don't want to just add it
to the pool. Is there a protocol for publishing it and allowing
specific servers to sync?


I have on my insanely long todo list to make some features in the pool system so you can list your server specifically for use by other pool admins. (And some vague ideas for how you the pool could generate a config for you).

But for now, just add it to the pool!  :-)
