Hi folks, |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
This is sounding the waters for some releng plans. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
First of all, /experimental/beta/. This would be a beta release of every |
| 17 |
arch, some time before the final release was made. Presently estimated |
| 18 |
about the same size as a release (2006.1 was 11.8Gb, 2007.0 was 10.3Gb, |
| 19 |
2008.0 is estimated around the same 10Gb mark). |
| 20 |
You'd be welcome to exclude it if you didn't want it on your mirror. |
| 21 |
Yay/Nay? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Second is a bit of a pie-in-the-sky thing, but it's going to be a DVD |
| 24 |
image and a bunch of related tarballs. Also under /experimental |
| 25 |
somewhere, for another ~4.5Gb. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
On sizes for /releases, /releases is going to be shrinking another 3Gb |
| 28 |
or so, as the last arches lose their 2006.0 stuff when 2008.0 is close |
| 29 |
at hand. |
