I've thought a bit about how to structure - and name - the directories for openSUSE 10.2 and like to get your feedback and suggestions for improvement. Goals ===== My goals with the restructuring are: * Clear naming - no misunderstandings * Smaller repositories for faster metadata download * structure should be usable for 10.3 Alphas und final again Separate trees ============== We have several ftp trees (for 10.1: OSS and Non-OSS) and I propose to make smaller repositories for faster download of metadata: * OSS (factory) * NON-OSS (factory-extra) * Debug (factory-debug) * Sources for OSS * Sources for NON-OSS Naming ====== * let's use "repository" instead of catalog, inst-source etc. FTP Structure ============= ".../distribution/openSUSE-10.2" has the following subdirectories: * isos * repositories "isos" directory has the following subdirectories: * dvd - the DVD5 * deltas * non-oss * oss * torrents "repositories" sdirectory has the following subdirectories: * debug * non-oss * oss * source-non-oss - just sources * source-oss - just sources Does this make sense? Do you have better ideas?
