Your timing is amazing. I just kicked off a test run of the new
anonftpsync. :)
Sorry I've taken so long to get back to you; the machine running the
mirror hadn't been touched in several years, and needed to be
upgraded to support the new anonftpsync script. I finally got around
to doing it this morning.
All of the changes you pointed out below have been made, the mirror
contains arm, i386, amd64, and powerpc archs only, and all of the
unmirrored cruft has been removed.
I have also added the arm arch and the disks* portion of the distro,
as the removal of the arch's I don't mirror has freed enough space to
do so.
You asked about bandwidth and frequency - the server is on a 100M
ethernet connection clamped to "around" 30M. It would be safe to
advertise 20M, I would think. Anonftpsync is kicked off each night,
so the mirror should never be more than two days from the masters (it
is mirrored from ike.egr.msu.edu, which is one hop out, and mirrored
nightly.)
Finally, since this former web server doesn't really do much other
than this mirror any longer, I have made it its own dns name at
mirrors.xenir.com, which points in over our higher-bandwidth pipe.
The path to debian is /debian.
I'll shoot you another email tonight or in the morning to let you
know that the new anonftpsync is working, and that it's ready to go
again.
Thanks again for your time,
Clint

Dear Clint,
If you still want your mirror to be included in the list of mirrors,
please fix the details below.
The bug will be closed in one month if there is no activity on it.
Thanks for your answer and best regards.

http://www.xenir.com/mirrors/debian/dists/unstable/ (but also testing

Please use the last version of the official script anonftpsync that
correctly exclude the proper files.
You will have to delete them by hand under dists/ :
for arch in alpha hppa hurd-i386 ia64 m68k mips mipsel powerpc
s390 sparc
do find /path/debian/dists/. -name *$arch* -exec rm -r {} \;
done
Moreoever, we strongly advise to use this script since it allows to
update your mirror in a atomic way (the mirror is consistent even
during
the update).

Comments about the available bandwidth, the frequency/date of updates
are welcome.
