How would a local mirror be managed in this system ?
Setting up repository mirrors should not be made overly difficult, else
all small edge mirrors disappear.

(basically a mirror requirement should stay a ftp/http server with
something responsible for getting the original packages/hdr/indexes on
the file server. No local reindexing, no dns, just a stupid file server
+ wget cron)
