The problem with that is getting someone to pay for the bandwidth.  The 
sources are now hosted by Oregon State University, but they are supposed 
to be for mirrors, not direct user download.

All the sources for the full releases are at the mirrors.  I know that 
there are several instances a month where someone decides to download 
everything from anduin - including duplicates that are there via 
symlinks.  This leads to high bandwidth.  We have an exceptional deal 
from Server Beach on this, but where you put sources has to take this 
practical consideration into account.
