 # TODO: remove hard-coded package suffixes
 
+# TODO: Create an intentions-queue: It should handle all mysql and
+# master mirror interactions which interact with each other or other
+# local actions (repo-add, repo-remove, ...).
+# Design idea: Create enumerated shell scripts which do the right thing
+# and remove themself after successful execution.
+# return-assignment would create the following scripts:
+# 1. get lock
+# 2. download database from mirror
+# 3. update package database
+# 4. update mysql database
+# 5. upload database and package to mirror
+# 6. release lock
+# db-update would create the following scripts:
+# 1. get lock
+# 2. determine, what needs to be done (and create script 3-8 accordingly)
+# 3. download database from mirror
+# 4. update package database
+# 5. update mysql database
+# 6. upload database to mirror
+# 7. update packages on mirror
+# 8. release lock
