Re: i hart you

What's cors?

For mirrors, here are the three I run.   I think the
mirrors.arsc.edu will bounce mirrors in some circumstances
(we run Apache mod_evasive), but the other two don't.

This is the server we push to simultaneously with ibiblio
(a.k.a. gutenberg.org).  It does not have dynamic content:
 http://gutenberg.readingroo.ms
 ftp://gutenberg.readingroo.ms/gutenberg

This syncs from ibiblio.  Dynamic content is under
cache/generated
  http://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/gutenberg
  ftp://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/mirrors/gutenberg
this one has rsync, too

This is just a mirror, from snowy, without cache/generated:
  http://www.mirrors.arsc.edu/gutenberg
... though it is temporarily not updated

Note that rsync is still best-of-breed for mirroring.
See the mirroring how-to at www.gutenberg.org
