[CentOS-mirror] Re: Mirroring Release of CentOS 5 Beta

In preparation for the public release of CentOS 5 beta, we would like to expand the number of mirror servers that have the beta as we expect it to be a popular download.

So if any mirrors - especially ones with large bandwidth - can agree to the following please let us know :-

1. set up an apache virtual host as beta.centos.or

2. set up rsync for beta.cenros.org with targets we specify

This will make it easy for us to use GeoIP based dns system to give out mirrors.

3. agree to sync regularily and only carry the latest beta download tree

Because we dont want broken stuff too widely distributed

4. agree to remove the beta stuff when the beta test is over

I'd be willing to do that just let me know when.
