[WBEL-users] rsync capable mirrors

[Graham Purcocks]

I'm just building my own internal mirror as we now have sufficient 
machines to make it a win/win situation. I'm in the UK so this is my 
best mirror.

So a quick question.

Is the os directory at the last respin stage and the updates directory 
since then?

If so, presumably the os directory will be updated at respin 2.

Is this correct?

Thanks
Graham
