Thanks for submitting your Debian mirror.
Here are a few details to fix before the inclusion of the server in the
list.

The local trace file should match the main site name, i.e.
mirror.hmc.edu, so could you please rename
/debian/project/trace/worblehat.math.hmc.edu and change the anonftpsync
sync so that the local trace file is generated as "mirror.hmc.edu" ?

Because of our unadvertised add of armel to the debian archive, you also
provide armel. So in the case you don't want to provide it, exlude it.
By the way, it seems you don't use anonftpsync, since some files
specific to arch you don't provide are present.
You can easily remove them (as well as armel) with the command:
for arch in alpha arm armel hurd-i386 ia64 m68k mipsel mips s390 sh sparc
do find /path/debian/dists/. -name *$arch* -exec rm -r {} \;
find /path/debian/pool/ -name *_$arch.deb -o -name *_$arch.udeb -exec rm -r {}
\;
done
( See for example /debian/dists/unstable/ )
Using anonftpsync is strongly recommended, since it downloads only the
needed files, creates the trace files we need, and uses the right rsync
parameters to make the mirror being consistent even during its update:

ftp.us.debian.org is a round robin, and round robin and rsync may
generate bad surprises.
So it's a better idea to explicitely select one mirror out of
ftp.us.debian.org rotation as explained on
http://www.debian.org/mirrors/ftpmirror#wherefrom
(ftp.egr.msu.edu, mirrors.kernel.org, debian.osuosl.org,
debian.lcs.mit.edu)

We like to know and to tell our users how much bandwidth is available.
Can you provide us this info ?
Thanks for mirroring Debian and best regards,
