Hi Angelo,

the last two are obvious: in TL2009 there is no omega, only aleph.

As for the rest I have no idea, not being familiar with the post-build part
of all that. I would, however, think that you have to use something like
rsync.tex.ac.uk::CTAN/systems/texlive/tlnet/2009 provided such already
exists. There have been lots of changes in this area and you might have to
use svn://tug.org/texlive/trunk/Master or equivalent.

Probably someone else can give you a better answer.

Peter
