I'm working on getting some data mirroring infrastructure in place so we
aren't dependent on ibiblio uptime and speed. What I'm working on will let
us use the paid servers to point to currently active mirrors, to allow
us to take advantage of offers for mirrors on high bandwidth pipes even if
they aren't up all the time (home lines, uni lines, other free stuff,
etc.).

Anyway, as part of this I'm rearranging the content on ibiblio to be a
little more organized and easier to mirror / monitor. I'm leaving symlinks
to all the old locations so no one should notice anything different, but
those of you that do uploads should at least be aware of it.

The new layout should look something like:

without symlinks:

download.sourcemage.org
cauldron/
image/
iso/
grimoire/
codex/ (aka codex.sourcemage.org)
distro/
fallback/ (aka fallback.sourcemage.org)
misc/
projects/
sorcery/
sounds/
tmp/
tome/
logos/
screenshots/



with symlinks:

download.sourcemage.org
cauldron/
image/
iso/
codex -> grimoire/codex/
distro -> grimoire/distro/
fallback -> grimoire/fallback/
grimoire/
codex/ (aka codex.sourcemage.org)
distro/
fallback/ (aka fallback.sourcemage.org)
image -> cauldron/image/
iso -> cauldron/iso/
logos -> tome/logos/
mirror -> fallback/
misc/
projects/
projects -> misc/projects/
screenshots -> tome/screenshots/
sorcery/
sounds/
sounds -> sorcery/sounds/
tmp/
tome/
logos/
screenshots/
