Infra has started a discussion with our mirror operators about the technical impact of carrying the 3.4 release on Apache mirrors. The early feedback is better than expected tbh, but there will still be a certain percentage of Apache mirror operators who will either need an opt-out or to drop their mirror.
We'd appreciate it in any case for this PPMC to reach out to existing ooo mirror operators and ask them to sign up for Apache mirroring if they haven't already done so. That would help us fill in any mirror lossage we have as a result of carrying AOO releases. Please direct them to http://www.apache.org/info/how-to-mirror.html with the amended information that we'd like to require mirror operators to provide 80-100GB of disk and perhaps a 50-100Mbps link. In any case the download traffic for non-AOO releases is negligible and your mirror operators already should have their own data about bandwidth requirements. TIA
