Dear Arch Linux Mirror Administrators, Greetings from Qilu University of Technology (Qilu Tech). We are writing to formally apply for our mirror site (mirrors.qlu.edu.cn) to be added as a Tier 1 mirror node in the Arch Linux official mirror network, with permission to sync directly from rsync://rsync.archlinux.org/ftp_tier1/. Our mirror has recently been upgraded with dedicated access to the China Education and Research Network (CERNET) as a backbone node in Shandong Province, providing: High-speed IPv6 connectivity with a 20 Gbps dedicated bandwidth, ensuring excellent network performance for both domestic and international users. Robust infrastructure with redundant storage, reliable power, and 24/7 operational monitoring. Commitment to long-term service as part of our university’s mission to support open-source and academic communities. We aim to contribute to the Arch Linux global mirroring infrastructure by providing a stable, high-performance mirror in East Asia, particularly optimized for CERNET and IPv6 users. If our application aligns with Arch Linux’s mirror requirements, we would be grateful for guidance on the next steps—whether technical configurations, formal agreements, or compliance reviews. We are prepared to provide further details or adjust configurations as needed. Thank you for your time and dedication to maintaining Arch Linux’s outstanding distribution network. We look forward to your response.
