And (shameless plug) cvsup :-)
With rsync, I've wondered about creating a hidden shaddow of the FTP
area that didn't contain gz/bz files. rsync works best against
uncompressed archives. Giving official shaddows access to that should
result in a significant reduction in bandwidth (at a cost of cpu
performance at the remote end).
