I understand this concern but since all official mirror owners are on this mailing list perhaps it would be sufficient to inform everybody about it few weeks/months in advance ? (and update howto at https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreatePublicMirrors accordingly..)
right, I appreciate that - however, the goto release for aarch64 happened very quickly, we had literally 2 days to workout the entire process and so took the safest option that gives us the most expandability down the road.
(also: isn't RH going to release 7.X for aarch64 in the future ? .. in that case would CentOS 7 for aarch64 be in same place as x86_64 or in altarch ?)
if they do, when they do, then if we have a clear downstream build, that would end up in /centos/ space, till then ( and maybe beyond ) we would keep the altarch/ space going for this.
And IMHO this is the wisest decision to keep anything that is not from upstream in a separate tree.

Well, as KB said, there is a need to define clearly what AltArch is. For example, it makes sense to say that armv7hl is AltArch as there is no upstream for it. It's interesting for ppc64/pp64le that is actually being built by Community, but with a real upstream version.
Anyway, such discussion would need to happen on the centos-devel list, and not the centos-mirror one.
