10 Only problem is that our current torrent server is lacking in storage
11 space. Infra should be notified before they actually release any
12 tarballs. I surely hope that Stuart doesn't expect to to host those
13 tarballs on the current overlays.g.o machine because that upstream
14 provider is limited on our bandwidth usage.
15
16 From my point of view, it would have been nice to have at least been
17 asked what infra could do to host these tarballs down the road. That
18 way, we have a sound plan of doing a good release when they're ready. I
19 don't like the idea of them springing a release and then asking us to
20 host it in a week. Things like this need to be planned from an infra
21 point of view, just like releases from releng are.
22
23 Anyways...

25 Stuart: When you get a chance, can you please either message me on irc
26 or send em an email with your thoughts on how hosting might work so we
27 can start planning that?
