: mirror from any nearest debian ftp server:

: debian/non-free/*
: debian/contrib/*
: debian/non-US -> ../debian-non-US/bo
No, since this is _above_ the debian root.
: debian/hamm/hamm/*
: main -> hamm
: non-free/*
: contrib/*
: non-US -> ../../debian-non-US/hamm
Again, no, since this is above the debian root.

: mirror from nonus debian ftp server:
: debian-non-US/bo/*
: hamm/*
: non-US -> bo/
: dists/stable/non-US -> ../../non-US
: dists/unstable/non-US -> ../../hamm

: mirror from nonus.debian.org is for nonus stuff only,

That's clear, but I'd like to integrate the non-US stuff
completly under the debian root.
It should be easy for any mirror admin to either mirror
from a inside US ftp server and additional from nonus.debian.org
or completly from outside the US.
: I think it will work fine if debian-non-US is the next to debian directory
: and almost non-us debian ftp site already has such layout.
... again, I'd like to see the non-US stuff in the same hierarchy as
the non-free and contrib, _below_ the debian root dir.
