Folks --
Please avoid placing files in our distfile mirroring system that are not
absolutely necessary. Yesterday, a 1.1GB file was dropped into it which
caused some of our mirrors to complain, especially when they discovered it
was a game file.
In the last few months, our distfiles mirror has grown nearly 100% in terms
of space requirements. Gentoo's increasing popularity also places greater
demands on our mirrors in terms of bandwidth requirements as well. We need
to do our share to be respectful of these limited resources and use them
only when absolutely necessary.
