I think it would be nice in general to be able to mirror at least
hackage.haskell.org. Something like rsync would be close to ideal for
this purpose.
Reasons I would like to mirror hackage:
1 - Provide alternative when the main hackage is down
2 - Access to the sources of all uploaded packages for analysis purposes
It would be also interesting to have alternative upload servers. That's
certainly more complicated, but I know that the AmiNet manages this
problem, e.g.:
http://de.aminet.net/
The secondary upload servers queue the uploads and forward it to the main
server, when it is available.
