Hi all,

Just a quick note to let everyone know about some infrastructure changes.

We now have 2 sites for repositories:
*repo.archserver.org* - this is the official repository where files are
actually hosted.
*mirror.archserver.org* - this is a mirrorbrain
<http://www.mirrorbrain.org>site that looks identical to
repo.archserver.org, but any downloads will be farmed off to our mirrors
automatically based on the clients IP address.

repo.archserver.org will continue to work as normal for file requests,
however directory listing requests will be redirected to
mirror.archserver.org to allow mirrorbrain to do it's job.

The best part of mirrorbrain is that it takes care of torrents for us -- any
file in the repositories (from ISO images to individual packages) can now be
downloaded via bittorrent. Initial seeding will come from HTTP mirrors.

Cheers,
~p
