There was talk earlier of making up a script to fetch some

start:

you are talking about real mirroring, not 'cvs up && bin/build', right?


I'm not sure I appreciate the difference ...

The differences:

- you don't get the swish indexes
- incorrectly set mirror might use a lot of bandwidth, since the whole site with pdfs currently weights ~30MB and growing.


I'm doing a 'cvs up
&& bin/build', in part because it's just as easy as using a
mirroring program, but also because it's more natural to do it
that way to regenerate the swish-e indices locally. But apart
from generating these indices, should it make much of a
difference here in how the site is mirrored, as long as it's done
often enough?

Nope. But encouraging cvs mirrors sounds like a good idea to me.
We could also offer the cron script which syncs the cvs, rebuilds the docs and indices.
