The older your crux installation/ports tree is, the more you'd appreciate a distfile mirror. Not that we necessarily should encourage keeping an outdated system...
You have a point here.
That's what I meant with quality. If we provide mirrors for the very latest crux, it's definitely easy. If you want to support 1 or two versions back, some tracking is needed.
Yes, that was my idea. Since we're a small team I think it's wiser to concentrate our efforts on keeping the currently 'supported' tree in good shape and do our best to give the nicer possible experience to diligent users. That said, if somebody feels to implement a tool that keeps track of previous versions, I've nothing against using it. Regards, Simone
