Hi,
I can offer a sage mirror within the next few weeks at
sage.mathforge.net. It would be in the
Westin building so you can expect first-rate uptimes etc. My only
concern is disk space, so please let me know if this can be done without
the huge archive of much older releases. The disk space problem is only
temporary as well; I have bigger disks to get installed soon(ish).

Hello,
I'm back from vacation.
I'm making modular.fas.harvard.edu/sage into another SAGE mirror
right now. For some reason even sage.scipy.org is down right now,
so the *only* active SAGE mirror site is David Kohel's echidna.
Anyway, the current or pending SAGE distribution sites are:
* http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage
* http://modular.fas.harvard.edu/sage
* http://echidna.maths.usyd.edu.au/sage/
* http://sage.scipy.org/sage/
Probably one of the best ways to make this easy to find is for
the sage website and some other sites to have a page like this:
<h1> SAGE Mirrors: Software for Algebra and Geometry Experimentation </h1>
<ol>
<li> <a
href="http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage";>http://sage.math.washington.edu/sage</a>
<li> <a
href="http://modular.fas.harvard.edu/sage";>http://modular.fas.harvard.edu/sage</a>
<li> <a
href="http://echidna.maths.usyd.edu.au/sage/";>echidna.maths.usyd.edu.au/sage</a>
<li> <a href="http://sage.scipy.org/sage/";>http://sage.scipy.org/sage</a>
</ol>
Currently the SAGE website is about 5GB. Of this, 4.1GB consists of source
tarballs of
96 past complete distributions of SAGE. I think I'll get rid of all but
the newest
1.x.y.z release, for each value of x, which would greatly shrink the space
used by
the mirrors. I'll do this only after sage.math is back up (tomorrow), and
I'll of course
keep all versions somewhere. (In fact, I'm going to make a backup of all
of them to
a DVD in a few minutes.)
Does anybody have web space that they could volunteer as a sage mirror?
Ideally,
I would like to have at least 10 mirrors (so six more) within the next few
weeks.
In particular, it would be good to have at least one mirror in Europe and
one
in Asia, since currently we have neither.
