general-concepts/mirrors: Clarify that files must be distributable. |
9 |
|
10 |
It makes no sense to require that files are distributable only by the |
11 |
Gentoo Foundation; they should be freely distributable by anyone. |

-If you have to host a source file (patch or tarball) yourself, as long as it is suitable to be |
28 |
-distributed by Gentoo Foundation (by license and legality), you're suggested to use your developer's |
29 |
-space at <c>dev.gentoo.org</c>. Since external overlays may depend on your patches/tarballs, using the |
30 |
-dev space at <c>dev.gentoo.org</c> keeps the distfiles at a stable and reliable infrastructure. If you |
31 |
-retire, other developers can take over your distfiles and place them into their own devspace. |
