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..) (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 ?) > > The plan is to open rsync for these targets as wide as possible, to > allow anyone wanting to opt into these to grab it from us.

(we are using these 32bit packages in our internal build system, so far we mirror from buildlogs.centos.org .. which is not very practical ..) Thanks !
