Hi,
after a short chat with arma on irc, I want to add a topic: "rescue the website mirror project"
It's about the tor-mirrors page [1] at our website.
Last night at irc ;)
<Samdney> hi, should I update the .csv file for tor-mirrors? It turned out that we have no link, nowhere, or whatever to this page on our website. So, I assume, people are only able to find it by the help of a search engine. ;) <Samdney> with page I mean the tor-mirrors page. <armadev> yes please, re updating csv file <armadev> and also, you're right, i think people un-linked the mirrors page over time <armadev> i think gettor might still grab some of them and use them. or maybe it only does that with mirrors it trusts. <armadev> samdney: do you attend community team meetings? maybe ask there if somebody wants to help rescue the website mirror project? <Samdney> yeap, I attend the meetings. Will put this on the topic list. :) <armadev> awesome, thanks <armadev> it might be that we should shut down mirrors <armadev> in favor of making gettor work really well <armadev> and shipping the good pages inside tor browser or something <armadev> i think we need to brainstorm our goals, and then see what combination of solutions solves these goals. <Samdney> :) <armadev> samdney: feel free to put that whole "it might be that ... solves these goals" text on the topic list if that seems wise
Short explanation: Currently we have an tor-mirrors mailing list [2] where people can say "hey I have an mirror, add it" or "remove it". Somebody add the entry manually to the mentioned .csv file [3], and updates with [4] the page [1].
At the moment, there is no place at our whole website which links to [1]. But, of course, you can find it with a search engine.
It's not clear what we should do with this site.
