Hello hello everybody.

I was thinking that I can build a public AntiX mirror based in the UK (London).

I can do that if you want cause I see there are only three mirrors right now.

It will be like a VM with cronned rsync etc. I suppose.

Also, in the directoies there are only two isos and two md5 files that are being mirrored as of now, right?

If you whink this is a good idea (don't know the decesion-making process on AntiX) I can start it unofficialy first and once it's ready and tested, make it live and why not official.

Oh, and I forgot to mention: It will be on a core LIBRE AntiX instance.

By the way, is there a Libre kernel version of 13.2?

Great idea and get it set up and it will become official.

For antiX-13.2, there is only the full versions available as iso downlods. There are gune-libre kernels available to download.

linux-image-3.7.10-gnu-antix.5 and linux-image-3.11.5-gnu-antix.1

I started working on this. I believe I will need a bit of support, just to double check that everything I'm doing in an efficient way. Should I do this here or on a mail list or something?

Is there a master AntiX mirror?
