Perhaps we should have a secondary archive built using SoftBoundCETS, which possibly has a 50% speed hit according to this talk: http://events.ccc.de/congress/2013/Fahrplan/events/5412.html https://media.ccc.de/browse/congress/2013/30C3_-_5412_-_en_-_saal_1_-_201312271830_-_bug_class_genocide_-_andreas_bogk.html http://acg.cis.upenn.edu/softbound/ http://safecode.cs.illinois.edu/docs/SoftBoundCETS.html -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
