(belatedly) I'm happy to run a backbone mirror at cpan.hexten.net.
I've been trying to get File::Rsync::Mirror::Recent to work for me.
I'm currently syncing from rsync.nic.funet.fi::CPAN and it seems as if
the RECENT* files I get from there[1] don't contain a full set of
updates.
I've asked Andreas off-list if I can have a password for the PAUSE
rsync server. Is pulling from PAUSE likely to fix the problem with the
RECENT* files?
