Description David Coulthart 2003-05-28 10:21:53 UTC

I run a local mirror of the gentoo sources (planning on going public soon) and
mirror the sources from ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo and
recently noticed that the gentoo-x86 and gentoo-x86-portage directories have
disappeared from this mirror (is ibiblio.org the master source?).  Are these
directories in fact intended to be deleted?  I remember a recent mailing from
the ibiblio mirror maintainers that  they had experienced a severe hard drive
crash, so I just wanted to confirm that the deletion of these directories wasn't
a side effect of that.  Is there a mailing list for gentoo-mirror related
discussion where I would learn of changes such as these?

ibiblio is no longer an rsync mirror. (I wasn't even aware that they ever were).  For private mirrors, you're welcome to use rsync.<continent>.gentoo.org or rsync.<country code>.gentoo.org to sync from.

For public mirrors, the master server is rsync1.us.gentoo.org.

You can subscribe to gentoo-mirrors to get more information about mirror-related activities.
