It > just isn't official. It *is* official. It just isn't hosted on Gentoo Infra :-P. It's officially maintained by an official Gentoo developers who happens to be officially on Infra too, and officially is more reliable than Infra-provided distributions channels were. Can it be more official?! But seriously, I don't mind moving either the scripts or the mirrors to Gentoo infrastructure. But... ...as for the scripts, Infra so far didn't offer me hardware better than the one donated for the scripts now. There were proposals about distributing it, etc. But I simply don't have the time to work on making the scripts very complex in order to make them run efficiently in a complex environment, when simple scripts work very well so far. I've already spent some effort cleaning them up and making configurable. I haven't had the time to prepare proper deployment/install script though. It's still in todo, and sometimes I regret I don't have a backup server ready to take over whenever this one fails (which is still more rare than Gentoo infra problems). ...and as for the mirrors, nobody has offered to host them so far. While GitHub provides quite a lot bandwidth, for free, without having to ask and with API that makes it trivial to create and delete repositories as needed. If someone can provide something like this, I don't mind mirroring to 2+ hosts. --=20 Best regards, Micha=C5=82 G=C3=B3rny --Sig_/haY7eccmF7T3dJBY3Sn/As3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJWr822XxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ2REJCMDdDQzRGMERBRDA2RUEwQUZFNDFC MDdBMUFFQUVGQjQ0NjRFAAoJELB6GurvtEZOsj0P/0UmFVmnzZHJV9E/BwvriMQo qnex/dRIoVdxTSIBRdATG7odzpNDfY24jZh+IOdilPt69uDL5wGvZ64PbODBWHD5 doW5cgzqbwnMrrVjj8c6YnEhTC7n+lLGJNhdABwDMNeSyVnJAPKBgYnEoiICeko6 zAqN8i7FsIaLdeVpFZpv5pxlxv3a8mrZ7/FVKU5eiZJpi/3dOmY9Vl2JwSJ7sFwR hPnJykQ17WFMdEDOwEJHab2sWkGRN09qjRK/VGiZIUo5agGdPCzeo+Fv0K9vgN0k 0fDIS3v46T4/0HJ4gqS/jIA7BKzNPMuTr3Ppehi+OaBtAfWrneliy5+4rhG8Msoy cQLgbn52VOw8H/kaITI+gQqeL49xOapMoc1YZmWoM9SYw6AZRa38EoBWWKhS9sMJ Sk91zZ3tt6EeDdaO7he5KgE6SoDmL3PueyzD2ftUHRxF9vfjV9TIzrCHZvprtsdX aiaxfD6Qn73lENT2OW4AHln+IM1qN8PClWkXmBVE5nMKV3B9+mCzYAvgdVU5Dkit c8fxzRncTxBCK/lCulGaiiY6WaG9rHQCDlEMT6VjesnJDbIlubh9iyvA5fkgpCu6 A1WKR//wEUzIB/hko5WRcd0NKEc6cTW+jkZJCcNXdzk7cVt6UwwehLI3saF/ASZm ots+2xOWsi68dWBUkn80 =aWON -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/haY7eccmF7T3dJBY3Sn/As3--
