Isn't  that what you said last time? <g>

That's why it's called a mirror not the primary distribution point. More
mirrors - less load on one server, less chances we'll have lots of unhappy
users because they can't get the best software in the world <g>

My understanding there isn't anything special about apt repository
mirroring, they are just files & directories under some URI.
