Hi

When I am not developing AtlasStyler and Geopublisher, I make a living
with wikisquare.de, a tiny company in Bonn (Germany) thats specialized
in FOSS+Java+Geo+Statistics.

When i had to quickly test AtlasStyler in 4.0rc6 yesterday, it was
really a showstopper to wait over 100 minutes for the download to finish.

So http://wikisquare.de wants to offer the project free mirroring
services in Germany.

* I can offer up to 100GB of storage, fast connection and all traffic
needed.

I hope setup doesn't involve more than:

** On my side: Setting up a cronjob to rsync a folder on your server
every 30min. This would need a ssh/rsync login account to the existing
build/deployment server.

** On project side: Update the .html files that starts the download to
offer alternative links. Somewhere tinily provide a back-link to
wikisquare.de.

** On my side: Setup DNS osgeolivemirror.wikisquare.de

** On my side: The rsync could also copy .torrent files and the server
could start serving them automatically. (I want to use every opportunity
to show legal uses of torrents.)

If you guys want it, I can set it up this week i guess. (After i fixed
the AtlasStyler bug).

Greetings and keep the good work up,
Steve
