[gentoo-dev] rsync mirrorstats page (generation and parsing)

[Sebastian Pipping]

Hello!


When collecting information on the SYNC variable for my Summer of Code
gentoo stats project I'd like to check if the URL in SYNC is publically
known or some private/secret rsync mirror.  The page behind

  http://mirrorstats.gentoo.org/rsync/

seems to show that publicly known list.
As parsing the current page format is not trivial I'd like to know

 - if there is code parsing that page anywhere already

 - if the script generating that page could be extended
   to produce an XML equivalent of the provided information.

Integration of such a parser into app-portage/mirrorselect could be
interesting, too.
