6 Which will probably never happen to gentoo, because of the rather bg
7 mirroring system. So, would it be possible to host daily (or hourly)
8 snapshots of these rule files (or something like that) and tell the
9 world that we do so and that they can download these in the nightly
10 cronjob? That migth solve a problem and i don't see it becoming a
11 problem for the gentoo mirror infrastructure.
