cleanup/questions on some minor directories

[jason andrade]

Hi,

Now that ftp.au.freebsd.org is in sync (for probably the first time
in 2+ years) for ports/releases i've been cleaning up some of the
older stuff in the mirror here.

some questions - a while ago it was proposed removing the branches/
directory from the freebsd mirrors.  Was there any consensus on
making this happen ? A timetable ?

I'm also wondering about the following minor bits:

/pub/FreeBSD/tools/
/pub/FreeBSD/tools.NEW/

is one a replacement for the other ?

/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/

will the snapshots in there be deleted once a release has gone out ?
is it recommended for mirrors to carry this ? was there another
snapshots server in the past that held this stuff ?

/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/

there are a number of files that are directly written in there - is this
expected behaviour ? some are > 3 years old but don't appear to have been
archived into a directory of that year..

/pub/FreeBSD/TrustedBSD/

is this directory around for historical reasons ?


/pub/FreeBSD/development/drivers/ - empty directory ?
/pub/FreeBSD/development/doc/ - empty directory ?
/pub/FreeBSD/development/sparc64/ - empty directory ?
/pub/FreeBSD/development/ia64/ - historical directory ?

/pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/ - is this uptodate ? required to be
arried by mirrors? i can see it has a src-3 and src-4 but no src-5
(has a src-cur though).

/pub/FreeBSD/development/FreeBSD-CVS/ - is this an unpacked
cvs tree ? i've never quite worked it out.. and whether it
ties into branches/ or not

regards,
