Howdy mirrored brainiacs:
First, a quick intro:
I am an open source hacker and enthusiast, historically java and eclipse wonk, nowadays mostly playing with Python and C/C++. I am also a kind of software archivist and collector, a bit like some folks collect stamps, I do collect software: I peruse mirrors a few terabytes at a time.
I shall say that MB rocks, and you guys deserve kudos.

If I can modestly contribute, I will.

FWIW, the checksums for mirrorbrain VirtualBox VM appliance at http://mirrorbrain.org/eval/openSUSE_11.1/
are incorrect.
VB checks these in http://mirrorbrain.org/eval/openSUSE_11.1/mb-eval.mf
This makes a vanilla VM import in VB fail.
The checksums are likely for a 2.13.x version of mB.
The VM is for mb 2.14 but that is no biggie per se.

I deleted the .mf file and had to tweak a bit the VM settings and was able to get some boot, but the xfs fs never mounted allright.


Also:
the location for cmdln in mp.py comments:
"Requirements:
cmdln from http://trentm.com/projects/cmdln/
Install via e.g.
easy_install http://trentm.com/downloads/cmdln/1.1.1/cmdln-1.1.1.zip
(it is not in the Python CheeseShop so far)"


but is now here:
http://code.google.com/p/cmdln/downloads/list

I would suggest that it should be cached in the mb SVN repo and distribute with mb to avoid issues in the future of deps that can disappear. As a software collector, I can tell you this is happening more often than not.

Keep on rockin'
