Hi guys, |
| 2 |
as you probably know berlios is going to be shut down at the end of |
| 3 |
the year so we should probably find/create alternative download |
| 4 |
locations for the packages in the main tree. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
The attached list provide all those with mirror://berlios so if you |
| 7 |
are interested in some of those packages, or know upstream try to |
| 8 |
convince them to use sourceforge or other hosting that should suit |
| 9 |
their needs. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
If the upstream is dead I have no clear idea what to do, but maybe |
| 12 |
infra could set-up something download.gentoo.org where we could keep |
| 13 |
all the files with their sums and gpg sign from us gentoo devs to |
| 14 |
ensure their validity. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I am sending this mail now because from now on we should have 60 days |
| 17 |
to prepare -> just ~2 packages day should solve the issue :) |
