Subject: [eclipse-mirrors] New top-level directory, RSYNC changes
Greetings mirror maintainers,
We've done a few changes to our mirror setup that you may like to know
about.
NEW TOP-LEVEL DIRECTORY
=======================
We created a new top-level directory called "releases" which will
contain coordinated release train files so that we don't have to bug you
each year to create a new directory. Each year in June we have a new
Eclipse release, and a bunch of popular Eclipse projects release
simultaneously. Last year was Callisto, this year it's Europa.
For those mirrors who aren't pulling our entire directory tree, I'd like
to ask you to add download.eclipse.org/releases to your mirrored content.
EXCLUDED NIGHTLY BUILDS
=======================
Some time ago we excluded Nightly builds from being mirrored to you.
This has ended up saving us (and you) tons of bandwidth because it was
more costly to mirror large nightlies compared to serving the relatively
few downloads ourselves. This has also reduced the disk space we use on
your servers.
As a result, I've updated the Eclipse Mirror Script [1] so that a Full
Mirror is the default. If you'd like to mirror our entire tree (without
nightly builds, of course), feel free to update your script. Please send
me an e-mail if you decide to do so.

On behalf of the Eclipse developers and users worldwide, I'd like to
thank you for your continued efforts in being an Eclipse mirror.
Denis
