Developer Only Discussion List

[Eric Schabell <eschabell AT sourcemage.org>]

Howdy all,

I would like to start by thanking our web team's two newest members, Eric 
Womack and Seth Wooley, both who have take the time to create an update 
system to fill our mirror with the sources from both the Test and Devel 
Grimoire's (see below).

I have no idea what the condition is with sorcery's use of the fall back 
mirror, but would like to see it using the below disucussed mirroring as soon 
as is possible.

Now it is up to the sorcery team to make a move and add this where needed.

As a small help in the matters I wanted to update the following file in cvs:

sorcery/etc/sorcery/config

to change the line:

< out > FALLBACK_URL=http://download.sourcemage.org/mirror
< in > FALLBACK_URL=http://download.sourcemage.org/mirror/test

But I have no write access to this cvs.... (I know, I promised not to code, 
but I have never contributed to sorcery and wanted to  have a small entry in 
the changelog!)

PS. I did read the coding guidelines and procedures that the sorcery team 
used 
on the wiki! ;-)

If one of the sorcery team would see to this I would be a really happy 
camper...

Thanks in advance,

--
