Hi,
I remember the times when I coordinated the uploads to the
OpenOffice.org mirror network from my office at Sun in Hamburg. At that
time we used bouncer

Links to the Bouncer site of the Oregon State University on the
http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/ site don't work anymore... (maybe
by using the Archives Wayback Machine)
resp. MirrorBrain
One of the SuSE/Novell developers (Peter Poeml) was the main contributor
of the MirrorBrain code.
Some info on the German Wikipedia:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/MirrorBrain
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/MirrorBrain
http://svn.mirrorbrain.org/svn/mirrorbrain/trunk/
LibreOffice, VideoLan, KDE, Gome, FSF, Sourceforge and OpenSuSE still
use mirrorbrain.
https://mirrorbrain.org/
which was enhanced by a GeoIP module to route mirror requests to a
nearby mirror (background: a person of an African administration called
me if it would be possible to reduce requests to far away mirrors
because OpenOffice.org downloads resulted into mostly the whole
bandwidth of the whole state). Mirrors were located mostly at
universities spread worldwide).
The team should invite more mirrors to be part of the AOO mirror
network. If the downloads.apache.org site is the main distribution site
where eg. Sourceforge downloads the files for distribution then it
should not be promoted as download site.
Kind regards, Joost

Hi Peter,
I would rather encourage to use the ASF mirror system again as an
addition to our SourceForge downloads.
Regards,
Matthias
