this does sound interesting; as a mirror maintainer, i'm aware that we sometimes get bitten by the scenario of syncing metadata while it's being generated at the master, and thus receiving b0rken metadata. just to make sure i follow: if you were to set up such a mirror, i should then run a MongoDB instance on my own RPMforge mirror, set it to replicate from your MongoDB, and then write some script that generates the repomd.xml etc. by querying my own local MongoDB? if so, that sounds like a workflow i'd be interested in. -steve -- If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction. - Fabian, Twelfth Night, III,v PGP 8477B706 (A92A 1F7E 6D76 16A0 BFF9 E61D AD54 0251 8477 B706)
