im familiar with moblock, i use moblock-nfq on a torrent-capable box

my particular layout schema is known as a 'trivial repo'

see

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/repository-howto/repository-howto :

>Trivial Repositories

>Trivial repositories consist of one root directory and of as many
subdirectories as you wish. As the users have to specify the path to
the root of the repository and >the relative path between the root and
the directory with the index files in it, you are free to do whatever
you want (even to put everything into the root of the >repository;
then, the relative path will be simply "/").

>Example 2. A Trivial Repository with Two Subdirectories

>(your repository root)

its physically on a vm @ hetzner.de,
its a dev/build server thingie
and as long as i generate its support files correctly it functions well
its not in the least unfinished
spare, yes
simple, yes
does key/gpg stuff, yes
so far, mostly, works, yes
i used it for years for local-repos,
other repos are done with other tools such as reprepro etc

its located on a dev-server in germany we use for staging n stuff
my next step would be to get cinepaint included in the sidux repos,
and in not the upcoming release but the one after
tho i will do test isos after this preview/releae cycle
which isos can be hosted at the same location
built there even
at sidux we have miirors on good pipes on all the majot landmasses
several in the USA, my  latest is Internap, who do content delivery
one of my functions on sidux is to obtain/maintain  mirrors
ie the buck stops at me for mirrors status/etc
mirror page: http://sidux.com/Article303.htm
my initial interest in contacting this list was to build cinepaint for
a auteur edition of sidux
ive always made the odd movies, had one in the RainDance festival in
london [in the Eat My Shorts section]
tho im still shy an oss screenwriting app

my entry line here was

CinePaint does stuff ive done, want to do, want done, and want others
to be able to do

after i get cinepaint into sidux, its build will be capable of passing
debian requirements
our repo maintainer, is stephan lippers-hoffman see sidux.com for the
repo layout in use
id like sidux added to the distros that support cinepaint at that juncture
the sidux repo layout is like so:

#sidux
deb http://sidux.com/debian/ sid main contrib non-free fix.main
fix.contrib fix.non-free
deb-src http://sidux.com/debian/ sid main contrib non-free fix.main
fix.contrib fix.non-free
