It is in our opinions here at the university that the current materials should be placed in a subdirectory like
RELEASED/Debian-0.93R6 RELEASED/security-fixes RELEASED/updates RELEASED/contrib RELEASED/Incoming (to Be used by anonymous users for uploads to contrib) CURRENT/Debian CURRENT/private/project/Incoming (Devel uploads) CURRENT/contrib CURRENT/Incoming (To be used by anonymous users for uploads to contrib) SNAPSHOTS/debian-pre-1.0 (a full tree to be proposed as a releasable system) Documentation/ CURRENT/ RELEASED/ GENERAL/ AOUT -> RELEASED ELF -> CURRENT If we are to be making these moves I would like to forwarn the current mirrors so that they could update their filesystems. But I would really suggest something like this so that we can organize the archive a little better. Don't let drive space be a factor here. If a mirror site only wants to get -RELEASED thats fine if they have drive space to handle it all they will take it all. Make a suggestion to mirrors to get say -RELEASED and -Documentation. These are the opinions of more than one person here at Central and they are the ones that pay for and support the machines :) I woulld really like to hear a bit more on this matter since we seem to back lacking a bit about stating what is a "released" version and what is BETA. Kinda sounds like Win95 all over again :) Matthew S. Bailey David B. Brinks
