I can put any files on the server and can reshuffle them if needed, but you need to send me some kind of specifications what exactly you need. I can also put a nixos package to the garden, but you need to prepare it (and possibly provide the proper binaries). Try to shuffle the files on your local machine and play with it to see if it works. Would you like to provide sources or binaries? > Anything what can be done to help with Minimals? Man pages? Improve mtx-update.lua? Some other things as well, I'll try to move everything to the new server in some reasonable time.
