This may be less of an issue now that we don't have the split CD set, but
I would like it if rel-eng could produce a file into the master mirror
tree for "groups" of files that should be a single consistent download
set, such as a DVD and the checksum file, or the set of files that are
together inside a single torrent. MirrorManager is growing the idea of a
"file group", a single requestable entity that will return a metalink
listing each of the files in the file group. The intent was to use it for
the multi-CD download sets, but it's just as valuable for the DVD and
checksum file, or other similar groups. But it needs to be a file (say,
.fileset or something), in a directory that MM can find and use to build
the FileGroups.
