:Couldn't we set up a master pkgsrc repository using Hammer, and then use
:Hammer's mirroring capability? Would be nice to experiment and see how
:it performs. As most pkgsrc files are actually very small, the size
:penalty should not matter that much.

:Oh btw, can we Hammer-mirroring from slaves? Actually, I don't see a
:reason why this shouldn't be possible (just too lazy to try it out
:myself right now).

You can chain slaves along, sure. Except for the actual mirroring
operation itself they remain read-only of course.
