Not sure who out there can help, but I'm looking for a number of old Gentoo distfiles, that were located on the Gentoo mirrors directly, and not copied from some other location. I do have every other version of the mysql-extras, so I am only looking for those listed here.
mysql-extras-20050919.tar.bz2
mysql-extras-20051205.tar.bz2
mysql-extras-20060114.tar.bz2
mysql-extras-20070104.tar.bz2
I have every other version of that distfile, those are the only ones I'm missing, and I'm after making a nice Git repo to trace the history. The SVN tree that was used for a short while doesn't contain some of the details from these either, hence the need for the tarballs.
Beyond those tarballs, it would be interesting to try and build an archive of every distfile ever used in Gentoo. I've got the diskspace (and tape backup) to do it. I already have an LTO3 tape that is getting every bit of release media/stages from Gentoo, so distfiles would be the next logical step.
Edit: Thanks to Lisa for 20050904.
