How to use

Consultation

URLS for consultation are :

For DVD ISOs bigger than 2 Go, advise your user to use ftp or rsync, apache is buggy for 2 Go sized files and prevent from downloading complete files.

Filling

Simply use your ftp client on ftp.tuxfamily.org with your login (the panel one), files belong to your group and are replaceable by your project's contributors. Please add a README file including :

  • Repository's content, its organization
  • The license you chose for your files (see LicenceLibre) : add a LICENSE or COPYRIGHT file (like in debian)
  • How to use this repository
  • You can name this file MANIFEST (or _README or .README ? to place it first of list) => verify what is printed with an ftp connection.

Stats

You can get statistics at http://stats.download.tuxfamily.org/YOURGROUP/, for example: http://stats.download.tuxfamily.org/vhffs4/

Other

  • Look at http://download.tuxfamily.org/vhffs4/ for a debian repository example.
  • Think to put a md5sum or sha1 file for ISO images (It allows to check the downloaded files)
  • Please tidy up your folders (more than your room) to foresee next versions.
