I just want to reiterate my [unoriginal] suggestion that the actual directory trees be given neutral names, and be accessed through symlinks with meaningful names, to prevent re-mirroring as names change (e.g. from development to stable after the elf release becomes official, or from debian-1.0 to debian-1.1 as we find it necessary to change the release numbering).
