12 I think my english is bad, tell if you don't understand what I want to
13 say :/

15 I think that it's not to separate patch from distfiles (a lot are
16 already avaible) but to have a emerge sync faster and less bandwith
17 consumer.
18 many many patch are on sync server, many are not apply due to proc
19 architecture or USE flag.
20 Thoses patch that are on distfiles server aren't necessary download like
21 on sync
22 I think that it can be a way to take for futur.
23
24 Like an other thing (for bandwith use) : if an update of a pacquet is
25 avaible : why download are the new sources instead of just a patch ?
