Piwo is simply the most structured and well-maintained MiNT archive.
Whatever of importance (or not so important stuff too) that was ever
developped for MiNT is sorted in a meaningfull folder structure that
is easy to navigate; you find what you need quickly.
It's a very comprehensive archive. Even the latest MacMiNT is there.
For this reason, I suggest the following approach:
1) Use the mirror daemon of Funet to copycat Piwo's MiNT section,
Perhaps as: /pub/atari/mint/Piwo-mirror
2) Afterwards, remove any file that was already on Funet and only
keep what Piwo doesn't already have, in: /pub/atari/mint
Unless others disagree (please voice your opinion NOW), I think
this would be the proper way to accomplish this.
