Re: [eclipse-mirrors] Potential mirror

Wow.  That's very impressive. 

There are several options available
for those sites considering becoming an Eclipse mirror that have concerns
about bandwidth utilization...
-Mirror only release and/or stable builds
-Provide FTP only and limit the number
of connections to reduce the bandwidth utilization
-Use Apache's mod_throttle or something
similar to limit the speed or number of  http connections

In addition, several sites have internal
mirrors only.   This allows them to provide Eclipse drops to their
developers if they don't have sufficient resources to support an external
mirror.

There are many different options available.
 We appreciate all our mirrors, and welcome new volunteers!

Again, as the number of mirrors increases,
each individual mirror will bear less traffic as more options become available
to users in their geographical area.

Since Apr 13 2003 our mirror has delievered 200GB of data from the
eclipse tree.
