We are running an installation of AMO at
http://activities.sugarlabs.org . While not quite on the same scale
as AMO, we are still shipping 100 to 150G per day and increasing at
about 25% per month. As such I implemented mirrorbrain as a mirror
management system. Everything is going smoothly.

But one question I still have is how do you move content from the REPO
to the FILES host? Currently we are just using a symlink between the
two. But as we move the download server to a separate machine the
symlink will no longer work. Reading the Remora documentation, I
thought that addons would be copied to the FILES_HOST when they were
moved from the sandbox to public.

thanks,
david

All files are saved to REPO_PATH, which is not publicly accessible on
AMO. When a file is made public, it is copied to PUBLIC_STAGING_PATH,
which is the directory that is synced with our mirrors.

Just a suggestion David: you may like to link to a page that describes
what "sugar" is that is being extended by sugarlabs.

hmmm. It looks like the little sugarlabs tab has disappeared. It
should be in the same place as the dark blue mozilla.
