[opensuse-project] openSUSE Mirrors and p2p for easier ISO distribution
by Anthony L. Bryan 24 Sep '06

24 Sep '06

Hello, I thought you might be interested in the Metalinks for openSUSE, which are automatically generated by one of your mirrors (http://ftp.iasi.roedu.net/) at http://download.packages.ro/metalink/opensuse/. Metalinks are really useful for large files like ISOs and contain all mirror and p2p locations along with checksums and other metadata. I've attached one (edited, doesn't contain all mirrors), it's an XML file and is pretty self explanatory, but here's a good description: 'Metalink makes complex download pages obsolete by replacing long lists of download mirrors and BitTorrent trackers with a single .metalink file. As you might have already guessed, a .metalink file is a file that tells a download manager all the different ways it can download a file. The file itself takes the form of an open XML standard that can list an unlimited number of HTTP and FTP sources as well as BitTorrent trackers and ed2k and magnet links.' (http://www.downloadsquad.com/2006/08/28/metalinks-integrated-bittorrent-htt p-and-ftp-downloads/) Right now, Metalinks are used by OpenOffice.org and many Linux/BSD distributions. I think they could be useful to you too. Metalinks are supported by a number of download managers on Unix, Mac, and Win. There are 2 for unix, a command line version (http://aria2.sourceforge.net/) and one with a GUI. If you have any questions, please contact me.
