So, why do we need to mirror PyPI ? I understand "mirroring PyPI" as what we do with "wheel" packages, that is, delivering the wheel (downloaded from PyPI) of the specified version in the sage tarball. This is not mirroring. Mirroring is setting up a site B which in part copies content from another site A. Then one says "B is mirroring A". See examples in upstream/mirror_list. With binary wheels, creating a reasonable size tarball containing what's needed to install Sage on a particular platform easily gets into Gigabytes. It's also not clear whether the existing mirror structure would allow for much more content and traffic - but that's another story. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
