Many months ago we agreed to create a new file structure for the mirrors to get rid of some historical grown limitations and complexity.

I want to continue this and come to a final result.

Current situation:

- Mostly it's about to differenciate the files between "stable" for en-US files only and "localized" for all other languages.

- Due to Apache policy the source files must not be distributed by mirrors, but have to be offered from Apache servers only.

New naming structure:

- A new structure could look like the following:

<path_on_the_mirror>/<release_version>/<file_type>/<language_code>/<install_file>

Some examples to make it more realistic:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/it/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_langpack_it.exe

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/SDK/Apache_OpenOffice-SDK_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe

http://www.apache.org/dyn/aoo-closer.cgi/ooo/
4.0.0/source/aoo-4.0.0-src.tar.bz2

What do you think?

Thanks

Marcus
