The new distfile layout went live on 2019-10-18. Currently, we're duplicating all the files in two layouts. Could we set up an approximate date when we're going to remove the old layout?
What do you mean with removing? Do you want to remove entire support for "flat" layout in general or just want to stop serving flat structure on Gentoo main distfiles mirror?
Stop serving it.
OK, should be fine for main distfiles mirror. Just wanted to keep a note that we need to keep support for "flat" in general for people making their local /var/cache/distfiles available via HTTP in local network for example.
The council voted unanimously to set the date for this to 2021-12-01.
I'm going to move this back to council, given it's a council decision which hasn't yet been applied, and file a new bug for infra in the right component.
