Looks like Arpi didnt see this mail, so i reply for him.
At the moment we have enough ftp and http mirrors, but
what we could need is a complete mirror of the mainserver
including http,ftp,cvs,mail,etc... because the connection
of it is not so stable. This requires nearly a complete
machine (it's possible to do it an already existing, but
it would get hard). I tryed to get something like this 
here in at the ETH in Switzerland but nobody really
liked the idea of such a havy traffic machine in their
network :( 
If you could provide us something like
this, we would really apreciate it.

For more information please ask Arpi <[email protected]>
directly.
