No. Your package is quite easy since I addded it to the regular mirror
configuration.
The homepage and url files are helpers so I can find the original
site for the package. There is also a file regexp in some directories
that restrict searches to certain files.

Yes. I'm trying to keep about the last five version of a package and
then remove older ones.
