I think it won't make any difference -- there's basically no connection between different categories in a single archive (and to the best of my knowledge even between different branches or versions in the same archive). The only issue as far as I can see is the size of the archive, which given modern disk sizes, only seems to be a problem for mirroring. -miles -- "I distrust a research person who is always obviously busy on a task." --Robert Frosch, VP, GM Research _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list Gnu-arch-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
