IIRC this was discussed on the debian-www list a few years ago (I used to follow the list when I ran a mirror; we were trying to help develop this "website mirror" as well (well, we were helping inasmuch as we had a machine with apache and rsync and 16G of debian archives :)) I think James Treacy was trying to get this going, but there were some technical issues. I don't remember all the details. They may be in the list archives. -- Nathan Norman - Staff Engineer | A good plan today is better Micromuse Ltd. | than a perfect plan tomorrow. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Patton
