1 TL;DR if you never used rsync:// access to download copies of data
2 from our VCS's you can stop paying attention. This has nothing to do
3 with "gentoo rsync mirrors" for ::gentoo, which is a separate service
4 that we are not terminating.

6 We previously offered rsync:// protocol access to gentoo VCS
7 repositories. We have stopped offering this access. This is another
8 service that had little to no usage according to logs, and has a bunch
9 of legacy dependencies. For VCS content please use anongit.gentoo.org
10 to access content in git, and the vcs history project to access
11 read-only copies of historical cvs data at
12 https://projects.gentoo.org. We have kept completed copies of this
13 data, and if the public data is missing something or is incorrect,
14 please follow up with us.
