Greetings,
I've been running an unofficial Centos mirror for a couple years now.. but since it wasn't a full mirror I didn't announce it outside the university I am at. After a revamp of space on some servers I found myself in a position to do a full and proper mirror. Sounded like a great plan.
I now have a full Centos mirror available to the world via HTTP and FTP. The URLs for this are: http://dds.gina.alaska.edu/public/mirrors/centos/ ftp://dds.gina.alaska.edu/mirrors/centos/
The rsync options used: ROPTS="-avqzH --delete" MIRROR="us-msync.centos.org::CentOS"
Mirror is sync'ed twice a day at 3 AM and 3 PM Alaska time.
Credit for this mirror goes to: University of Alaska - GINA
The Internet connection should qualify as OC3 or better.
The location is Fairbanks, Alaska.
Anything else I need to provide or should be doing?

Cool,
By the way, the state abbreviation for Alaska is AK not AL. AL is for Alabama. Not a big deal.
One time a book I ordered took 3 months to get delivered because it was bouncing around Alabama. The person who took my order had done the same thing.. at some point in the mail system somebody recognized the ZIP code and corrected the address. That was a long wait for a book.

Re: Virginia Tech Computer Science department mirror
May 20th and 21st, our entire departmental infrastructure is going to be moving across campus (yay) and getting new IP addresses (yay). I'll send out another email some time in the closer future, but we're going to have a not-less-than 4 hour and not-more-than maybe 24 hour interruption in our mirror.
FYI.
