I guess you refer to the move into ISOC servers.
But out of curiousity - you probably have some historic download
statistics for the mirrors we currently have - are they available
online?

I've read it, the require you to give them access to your machine for
"pushing" updates. I don't love that...
I know. That's why I bothered mentioning it's a push system.
However, just note that (non-shell) ssh access for an unprivileged
special account (which would probably be chrooted too, assuming
Shachar manages the server ;-) ) is not much of a security risk. I
assume you already have ssh access for some (shell enabled) user
accounts anyway.
thanks,
