Doesn't apply to you necessarily, since you have sudo access, but I've
made /etc/cron.daily/mirrors writeable by the "mirrors" group so that all
mirror maintainers can update things that need to be run nightly.  This
would be preferable to individual crontab files, so that everyone can see
what's being run.
