How are opinions on setting up country-specific PyPI mirrors? The lag
to the US is pretty severe in Poland, and I suspect my buildouts would
benefit from having a server in Poland. Now, of course, it could be
called x.pypi.python.org, but maybe we should have aliases such as
pl.pypi.python.org as well?

I have no strong opinion on the issue, what do others think?
Wouldn't CloudFront make this moot?
If we state that PyPI completely depends on Amazon I guess yes.

But imho, it's saner for the long term to have a community-driven
protocol for mirroring so we don't rely on third-party vendors.
I understand where you're coming from but, ..
I think it's saner to rely on proven technology
than to invent our own protocol. NIH?

This also feels like a problem that has already been solved in various ways by Debian, RedHat, CPAN and others.

Wichert.
