There were no comments on the set of Mirror Site Requirements so I
will proceed with those unless someone(s) start to object.

As I'm sure you noticed it's the file permissions thing I'm most
concerned with.  I hate retro-actively changing "rules" like this
but I think we all believe pre-staging releases is a good thing and
I think we all realize having it work properly is in the best interests
of the Organization.

This will take me quite a while to work on, I'll do it slowly through
the next few months.  I've been asked to catalog the existing sites,
various parties have been interested in us figuring out what the
tier structure looks like (knowing which sites are Tier-1, Tier-2,
etc.), and so on.  So I'll make looking into this part of the whole
cataloging effort.  I'll try to make it as painless as possible.  The
extension to omi should be a big help - I was not happy about it seeming
like cvsup and rsync were the only good alternatives.
