Comment (by apl-haiku):
Worth noting that HDS also manages a list of mirrors. The API for this is
[https://depot.haiku-os.org/__docs/api.html documented] ;(see "Get All
Repositories' Details") so that the Haiku desktop would be able to obtain
the mirror data relatively easily. There is an already built web user-
interface for managing the list of mirrors and the HDS system will
automatically update the {{{identifier}}} field in the records if this
changes in the remote system. HDS's production of this data is cached and
honours the standard {{{If-Modified-Since}}} header. A JSON schema for
the response of this API is available.
