Some important changes have been made to the setup of the master repository and 
mirror infrastructure of the ArchServer Project.
There are now 2 sites for repositories:
 repo.archserver.org - this is the official repository where files are actually 
hosted.mirror.archserver.org - this is a Mirrorbrain 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.
A big benefit of this change is that Mirrorbrain now 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.
IMPORTANT: Mirror Administrators
Please review the changes to the following wiki article, and implement as 
required.
