As a mirror maintainer, when I first read your message I thought "This
guy must be crazy." Then I re-read your message ... I like the idea
quite a lot. However, I've only configured squid once in my life ...
have you any suggestions as to what's needed (mostly hardware-wise, I
guess, though any other helpful hints would be nice :)
Squid supports the proxy protocol AFAIK ... could this be leveraged by a
mirror site that wishes to support several proxy sites running squid?
