mirrors not deleting old files
mirrors are not properly deleting files that have been removed from taz.
It would probably be a good idea to make that work right. Agreed?

Yes. A "mirror-auditing" tool which scans web & ftp mirrors for
compliance is needed. Anyone have some spare cycles? I can belt out
a spec for it...

Most mirrors have a threshold check that says "well, gee, I'm supposed to
delete far more files than I just downloaded... maybe something is wrong,
I won't delete them." That's what my mirror told me today. I will go
delete Old by hand. I'm sure other admins will too, give it a few days.
