Right now I mirror from Europe (but keep it private as I do have the
committment to fight this battle yet). Please start your mirror and
publicize it. I would definitely use your site and testify as to how
wonderful this public service you propose to offer is to myself and
all humanity. From where I am ftp.lh.umu.se has the best
connectivity. My mirror.defaults is
package=Debian-non-US
comment=Mirror of Debian non-US
site=ftp.lh.umu.se
remote_dir=/pub/linux/debian-non-US
local_dir=/home/ftp/debian/non-US
compress_patt=\.*(Contents|Packages|Packages-Master)$
#do_deletes=true
save_deletes=true
delete_excl=Old
max_delete_files=10%
I'm looking forward to switching this to point to your ftp site!
