Hello,
Do you need a mirror? I can provide a mirror from Northeastern part of the
US.
Thanks,

Mirroring what?
Mirroring the website, no...I don't think that's needed. The primary
website is very accessible from virtually the entire world, and is very
reliable, and for the few times there are maintenance issues, there are
already a number of other mirrors.
Anoncvs or FTP/HTTP downloads? YES...we can always use a GOOD
distribution mirror. You are talking LARGE amounts of bandwidth, if you
have a meter on your bandwidth, you don't want to be doing this. If you
have to ask how much, don't. If you do a good job, you will keep a
100mbps link moderately busy. If you do a bad job..well, we don't need
someone doing a bad job. You will max out many metered plans simply
downloading snapshots, before anyone starts to pull from you.
Good = lots of bandwidth, high availability, plans for dealing with
failed hw, you having personal need of an OpenBSD distribution/anoncsvs
mirror (so you make sure it is staying current and running well).
If you think you meet all that, go ahead, set one up, let us know here
when you have it running.
Nick.
