Here is the current text in SPDX 2.0 for Download Location:

"3.7.1    Purpose:  This section identifies the download Universal Resource
Locator (URL), or a specific location within a version control system (VCS) for
the package at the time that the SPDX file was created.   If there is no public
(or internal) URL, then it is explicitly marked as NONE.   If there is
insufficient knowledge about whether a public or internal download mechanism
exists or not, then NOASSERTION should be used.  

3.7.2    Intent: Here, where and how to download the exact package being
referenced is critical verification and tracking data.
"


Methinks the language 'at the time that the SPDX file was created'  makes clear
that this field can be for wherever the SPDX producer got the code.

That would include a mirror, if that's where code came from.

Gary did write up best practices.
