Re: [gentoo-dev] Gentoo 1.4.1 and GRP

[Sven Blumenstein <me@0x1337.net>]

I would much prefer to have GRP of the packages mentioned in the GLSA,
so one could update his server really fast with the bug fixed packages.

So for every GLSA, generate a GRP, put it in some directory on the
mirrors and a Url with MD5 in the GLSA. The rotating DNS (or whatever 
bandwith friendly system) should be used there too to share the load 
between the mirrors.

Regarding the original idea, I agree with Sven Vermeulen's reply:
