As several people have offered to help moving our selfbotched system to mirrormanager (sorry Peter, but there were some offers - I am still not sure which one really is better technically, but the more helping hands, the better), I'd like to start this now.
Excellent. I'm happy to help in any way I can.
Oh, Bonus question: How do you check if a mirror is stale and how do you raise a flag about that in the mirror database?
There is a crawler that runs on a cronjob. It compares what the database thinks a mirror should have, with what it actually has (HTTP HEAD or FTP DIR commands). If a given directory does not match, that one directory is marked not up-to-date.
