给LEDE (OpenWrt fork)提供rsync镜像

[Yousong Zhou]

Hi, 各位

LEDE是今年五月份开始的一个OpenWrt fork.  虽然是fork，但是据我看，几乎所有fork前原OpenWrt活跃的开发者都跳到了LEDE，所以这个fork还是很正经的

记得早先mirrors里边有过downloads.openwrt.org的镜像，似乎是通过wget -r的方式同步的。LEDE提供较正式的rsync的入口供镜像使用 [1]，相比之前应该是好很多的

刚才在邮件列表里看到开发者之一jow提到缺少亚洲的镜像，所以转发到这里供大家参考，如果ustclug的资源足够的话，可以考虑做一个

[1] https://www.lede-project.org/downloads.html

以下为相关邮件，里边提到的buildslave指buildbot的slave机器，与镜像无关。原文见 lists.infradead.org/pipermail/lede-dev/2016-July/001726.html

Fwd: [LEDE-DEV] Mirror Hosting Offer

Hi Chris,

first off, thank you for the offer - we're always interested in hosting
donations :)

In anticipation of the upcoming release we will need to increase the
number of build slaves to be able to process multiple branches in
parallel, for that a few instances with lots of disk space (1-2TB) would
be quite useful.

Another thing which we could need help with is rsync mirrors in north
america and asia.

How would such a donation from Digital Ocean look like in practice? Will
we basically get instances for free or will there be some kind of free
credits for a selected account?

Regards,
Jo-Philipp

已经有人提过请求了，https://github.com/ustclug/mirrorrequest/issues/44

刚去 #lede-dev 打听 mirror 的事情，结果被个脑残OT恶心到了

anyway, 目前 rsync 的只有 snapshot，每天都更新好几遍，每次都一大堆，上游速度很慢，同步速度可能跟不上更新速度。
说是今年秋天才会出 release，目前也在找更快的 rsync server

同步snapshot到本地确实意义不大：数据量巨大，时效性太强，相比之下用户数也不多

从OpenWrt的记录来看，发布计划一直没有个准数。现在的LEDE的发布计划应该也还在蕴酿，都只能算是“尽力而为”，所以那个“今年秋天”估计也是作不得准的

所以结论是至少等到第一个release出来？
