What would be the minimum requirements for a mirror for the CentOS distributions? I've got some resources that I might be able to utilize to help out. Can someone respond to me offline where we can discuss?

onlist would be good cos I have some space & BW that I can offer in AU.

If you are looking to mirror the entire CentOS Public Mirror you need about 60 Gigs of storage, The requirements jump a bit when there is a new release since we will have both tree's for a few days ( eg. 4.1 and 4.2 are both live at the moment ), we will take 4.1 off soon.
There are somethings that we dont distribute out to public mirrors, purely for the sake of disk space usage. This includes : Beta / Testing versions of the distro's ( http://beta.centos.org ), debuginfo and deprecated pkgs + tree's ( http://vault.centos.org) and we also dont distribute DVD .iso images out ( only available via bittorrent )

What about bandwidth requirements, what would be considered a minimum?

we prefer T-3 / OC-1 linked machines, but anything greater than 10 - 12mbps is welcome. And we also need the odd OC-3+ grade link'd machines to get involved as well.

There is a short Howto which lays out the process itself :
