Well, they don't seem to be very averse to doing that right now. I would
expect a little congestion (assuming they don't just rate limit their
upload, rsync --bwlimit) a couple times per year for a couple days
wouldn't be that big a deal. Most of the time they're just pushing out a
few packages.

Sounds to me like if beau avoided public access and was just used to seed
mirrors, it'd do fine.
