Great suggestion! I'll get to work on adding the EULA and a copy of the GPL to the mirrors. Those will be sourced from here:

https://git.centos.org/rpms/centos-release/blob/c8/f/SOURCES

and placed somewhere in the BaseOS/AppStream/Powertools directories. Once this is finished, I'll report back with final URLs.
