Is it better to comment on these in bugzilla? Apparently I never created one, I just emailed, in the meantime, I'll reply here. This is a great idea, and I suggest using the GNU FTP software. It is unpublished currently, I think only because of momentum that it started as a tiny script 16 years ago but we (FSF) could publish and/or share it right away (just say the word). We recently had a volunteer audit the code for security issues and have been working toward publish a release that had all the documentation for other people to easily use it, but that doesn't need to be perfect, we can just do it. Right now, I see that GCC, GDB, GLIBC and Binutils are published both places, so this seems like an obvious area for more cooperation/coordination For example, (and I would just open a separate bug for this, but I want to get this off my chest): I notice that the sort order on https://sourceware.org/pub/ is alphabetical instead of version ordering, which is confusing. On the GNU FTP, we apparently get the right sort ordering through debian's config, /etc/apache2/mods-available/autoindex.conf, the line seems to be: IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort HTMLTable NameWidth=3D* DescriptionW= idth=3D* Charset=3DUTF-8, the debian upstream repo for this config is https://salsa.debian.org/apache-team/apache2 in the path ./debian/config-dir/mods-available/autoindex.conf I suggest adding that line to the sourceware apache config. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
