Thanks for submitting your Debian mirror.
There are some details you must fix before we can include your mirror in
the list.
Hi there! Thank you for looking at our request :)
Site: cesium.di.uminho.pt
Type: leaf
Archive-ftp: /pub/debian/
Archive-http: /pub/debian/
Archive-rsync: debian/
Mirrors-from: ftp.ch.debian.org
Archive-architecture: ALL
Maintainer: Ruben Fonseca [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In the Location field, the city is expected (Braga ?)
We can put Universidade do Minho as the sponsor together with its
website.
Yes, the city is Braga. If you can put Universidade do Minho as a
sponsor please use the website http://www.uminho.pt
Comment: The mirror is a full /debian mirror. It runs on HTTP, FTP and
RSYNC, on a 1.5TiB RAID5 array, with a 1GiB line to the world. It currently
updates every hour.
Every hour is way too often !
See http://www.debian.org/mirrors/ftpmirror#when
Don't update more often than twice a day, otherwise it overloads the
remote upstream mirror for nothing.
Right! So now our mirror syncs twice a day.
Just check the local trace file of ftp.ch.debian.org to determine the
two moments in the day when you can launch the sync.
Moreover, if you don't use anonftpsync yet (the strongly recommended
script), please switch to it since it allows almost atomic updates of
mirrors. Without it, you mirror is not usable during updates.
We are already using the anonftpsync. But thank you for the tip!
Don't forget to reply to the bug when these details will be fixed.
Thanks for mirroring Debian and best regards.
Thank you for your continuous work over this years on Debian.
We really appreciate it :-)
Ruben
