About
=====

This is pro-archman, the ProteanOS Archive Manager.

pro-archman manages packages in an archive laid out as explained in this
specification:

    http://www.proteanos.com/dev/archive/layout/

The ProteanOS Archive Manager can:

  * Include new packages into an archive;
  * Scan an "incoming" directory for new packages;
  * Remove packages from an archive suite;
  * Copy packages from one archive suite to another;
  * Remove an archive suite;
  * Efficiently generate feed index files that package managers can use
    to find packages in the archive; and
  * Remove old package files after a delay, allowing package managers to
    find packages listed in cached feed index files.
