We've a T1 to the T3 backbone, so mirroring the archie stuff I have isn't
a problem (from my end).
I'll provide the scripts and the glue etc to do the mirroring and indexing to
whoever wants to do it.
**** I'd really like to see a few more waised archie servers out there ****
Why? Well, mostly mercenary self-interest (archive.orst.edu is the campus
news server too) + redundancy. Takes 600 Mb to do it properly (if you have
400Mb main memory you could get away with 450 Mb disk space 8) ).
