It is totally sufficient to mirror the “current” repository as the other data is not going to be downloaded by any clients.

Nothing has changed for me.

It seems to have rather poor peering as traffic from Europe is being routed all the way through the US, Japan and Hong Kong. Some other IP addresses that I have tested go a more direct route so that I am assuming that routing from other places in the world isn’t great either.

Hello Kari,

Thank you for offering a mirror, but as far as I can see, this is not entirely fit for our purposes:

* First of all, there is no page that describes who is hosting this mirror. There is only a default page of Apache running on Debian on http://freedif.org/. Who is Karibu?

* This mirror seems to be hosted on a residential internet connection at https://myrepublic.net/sg/. It seems to have rather poor peering as traffic from Europe is being routed all the way through the US, Japan and Hong Kong. Some other IP addresses that I have tested go a more direct route so that I am assuming that routing from other places in the world isn’t great either.

Are these things that you can fix?

-Michael
