That bandwidth level seems a little too low to be reliable.  In addition,
we don't really encourage FTP mirrors, since they don't fit in our
mirroring system as well.

But thanks for your contribution.

Although your mirror looks good, I've the vague feeling that 264kb 
won't be enough. We usually require at least a 10Mbps pipe to your own 
country and at least a 1Mbps pipe to other countries. Furtermore we'd 
prefer HTTP mirrors.

However, thanks for the offer.

Cheers,
Erik
