Just a friendly reminder, if you are placing files on the distfiles
mirrors that are not claimed by an ebuild in the tree, you need to
whitelist the files- just add the files to
/space/distfiles-whitelist-current on dev.gentoo.org , and the files
will be left alone for 6 months, or until they'r

Agreed, although seemed to take a bit of dancing to get done to the
fact that yes, changing the prefix has a good chance of working.

Define "faster". All this would do is cut down on a couple of stats
per pkg; the # of ebuilds per pkg isn't a huge issue, the scanning of

Hola all.
The beast mirror stats xml page now lives at
http://dev.gentoo.org/distfile-mirroring/failure.xml
rather then my devspace. The page will get overhauled to be a bit
better looking, and proper xml whenever I get the chance.
Aside from that, devs- if you have a files that you need kept o

Just sending out a notice for those who have low bandwidth
connections- app-portage/emerge-delta-webrsync was added to the tree
earlier this week, and I'd like to get some user feedback on it.
