Simplify warehouse list about zimfarm

[rgaudin]

OK, just so we're clear it's going to be a difficult task because mirrors uses rsync and there is no such thing as renaming there. So if it's not properly coordinated (and we're talking about 12 different people) it could result in incredible transfers: deleting everything and re-downloading everything for instance.

Could someone push a documentation or an explanation on what is the intent of these warehouse paths, so that we are all on the same page on this question before making any decision?

A number of users including ourselves have always been using it to find and download ZIM files.

It used to be this or the wiki. Now all readers (but kiwix-serve) have an included downloader and we have library.kiwix.org that offers download as well.

I personally use it exclusively but have never been attached to the folders.

What are the warehouse folders is arbitrary and to a large extend should not be that important (for end users). The problem here is that it is "confusing" for Zimfarm editors, and this is IMHO primarely a UI problem.

We could choose almost automaticaly where to store the ZIM files based on the scraper and by choosing the "collection".

The "collection" means basically: in which library the produced ZIM should appear. For now we have formally only one collection. But once this will properly handled in CMS we will have many of them.

Still a bit unsure about how the separation of duties should exactly look like between the Zimfarm and the CMS.
