..I don't have any arm* debs in my lan mirror, Debian reports these
to 180GB, 179GB and 190GB, how much on our side in "devuan"?

..trying to find out, I found I'm denied rsync access to "devuan"
because I don't yet have ssh keys, so I joined devuan-mirror and
asked for ssh key access this afternoon today.

..thanks. _Should_ I really need ssh key access to rsync the
"devuan" part of Devuan for my lan mirror?
For public mirrors, I totally agree we need ssh key security,
but for my lan mirrors?

..for non-public lan mirrors I feel ssh key security should be
optional, so my lan mirrors keep working when my net link dies.

..correct, unless you're serving Debian clients or keeping an eye on
systemd etc conspiracies, the easier approach would be starting with
a Debian lan mirror and then "update" that debmirror-style to create
our own "merged" Devuan package mirror.

..debmirror-style, debmirror should believe any "merged" lie we feed
it, once we have those ssh key access issues on "devuan" sorted out.
