Zaragoza University offers mirroring OSGeo downlods

[Jorge Sanz]

Hi SAC,

Coming back from the SIG Libre conference (Spanish FOSS4G meetup) I had 
a chat with Miguel Sevilla (OSGeo Charter Member, CC'ed) about Zaragoza 
University offering storage to mirror OSGeo's download server in their 
infrastructure here in Spain. Miguel already mentioned this on the SAC 
chat room some time ago so better probably to continue the discussion on 
an email thread.

Also on CC on this thread is Ángel Balo, member of the Open Source 
office at Zaragoza University.

If OSGeo is interested on having a mirror in Europe, from the technical 
point of view they'd from OSGeo

  * A brief description of the assets to host
  * Current storage required
  * Some estimation of growth
  * Preferred synchronization technology (rsync?). I see that we already
    support anonymous rsync download
    <https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Download_Server#Rsync>

There may also some other bureaucracy required (a memorandum of 
understanding, or something similar I guess) but that can happen in 
parallel.

Please let us know what do you think about this.

Cheers!
