That's what I expected :) It was the only conclusion I came to
considering your mail and that there is no main mirror on pandora.

I have a machine with a local mirror but I can't say if I can give
anybody access to it. My boss is out of town - I can ask him though.
That machine would have a lot of disk space we could use for the
discs.

Another question is how to organize the package on the cds. Do we want
to maintain the pool structure there? I would say yes, since you could
that as a starting point if you want your own mirror. But we should
have symlinks from the section directories as well to not confuse
old users.
Opinions?
