Hi there,

for info/review/improv, I updated the mirrors policy page
(http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy ) to have:
 * better readability
 * more details on sections (distrib, iso, software, people, possible
archive one)
 * the mirror howto at the end (may be moved to a separate "how to
become a mirror?" page I guess).

Some discussions occurred with a mirror admin that brought up some
bits left to improve:
 * have a clear expiration policy (hard to define before having the
support policy setup)
 * have an archive section in the mirror
 * keep on explaining the "tainted" section outcomes, so mirror admins
have better facts & info to decide
 * provide clear rsync modules to help admins quickly pick up what
fits best for them.

Romain
