# for eclipse, i couldn't find a directory from the official website, so i decided to temporarily cheat a little bit and peek at another person's mirror for explipse
# i just realized that my method doesn't just work for scraping html directories but everything returned by a URL (websites, files storing a time)
# i think i'll put checking arch, ceph, ecplipse on hold because it's more proper to check them using as.Date(17383, origin="1970-01-01") where the date is stored in
# a file as a number, but this would require another function and me looping through different functions. i think i'll do this later

# i don't know what to do with damnsmalllinux, it seems like an abandoned project. useful link: http://distro.ibiblio.org/damnsmall/
# the other function is probably probing mirror status sites like this: http://mirrors.cpan.org/
# maybe i can make a column in json that specifies the method for checking the particular mirror and that identifier will find a specific function to check the update
