| Subject: | [gentoo-dev-announce] layman-global.txt -- overlays changed from http:// to svn:// |

| 1 | One year ago, infra added svn:// support to the overlays.gentoo.org |
| 2 | box[1]. It causes less load on the server, and allows for faster |
| 3 | syncing than transmissions via http[2]. |

| 5 | Yesterday I have changed the remaining URIs in layman-global.txt[3]. |
| 6 | This should cause no need for manual interaction for users. Existing |
| 7 | checkouts simply sync agains the old (still working) http URI and new |
| 8 | checkouts will use svn. |

| 16 | [2]Unfortunately, this will cause problems for users behind firewalls. |
| 17 | But the same is true for our rsync tree and git overlays. |
