Hello,
I just learned that ftp://ftp.gnu.org will be retired on Nov. 1st, 2017,
so we’ll have to implement a replacement for the ‘gnu’ updater at least.
At worst, we’ll parse HTML index files like the one at
<https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile/>, but I’m trying to see if the FSF
sysadmin could generate an ‘ls-lR’ file or similar.
Ludo’.
