Hi,
In the apache tree, I see a file 'dist/DATE'.
It now contains '1042860403' ;
perl -e 'print scalar gmtime 1042860403' says :
Sat Jan 18 03:26:43 2003
It is now (perl -e 'print scalar gmtime') :
Mon Jan 20 08:04:04 2003
If 'dist/DATE' was updated daily, it would be very
easy to check the freshness/staleness of mirrors.
Regards.
