[TYPO3-typo3org] How to make private repository ?

[Allan Jacobsen]

Hi Wolfgang

Yes, I have mixed some thing up, I think my misunderstanding comes from the 
drawing on http://typo3.org/teams/typo3org/documents/ter-20/page/2/ which 
mentions "supporting mirrors" that can rsync from repositories.typo3.org 
using anonymous rsync, so i think the drawing should be updated or removed as 
this possibility is not there.

Best regards
