None of that is documented, if it's even supported at all. Beyond using network trickery to reverse-engineer API calls, I don't see how it can be expected that it should already be in place. Does Matt really want to risk creating alternative repositories and losing the central role wp.org is providing (yes, free of charge)? What about plugin authors who want to ensure their stuff is available on all WordPress hosts, what will they have to do to push to all stores? WPEngine acquired some pretty popular plugins (acf, deliciousbrains), it'd be a shame to see them exclusively available outside of the wordpress.org ecosystem as a retaliation. |

Don't worry, though, Matt has generously given them 72 whole hours to figure out exactly how to do it, and complete the whole mirroring process, too! Oh, he did that on a Friday afternoon, just before the weekend? Extra generous!
