Server is physically located in Vancouver, Canada.  Network is good to both Canada & Pacific Northwest (direct tie-in to Seattle).

Only carrying distfiles/, releases/, and snapshots/.

Cron'd to rsync every 4 hours from ftp.ussg.iu.edu, though I could change the rsync source if necessary. (just went on the posted web instructions)

small suggestion, add an .htaccess file in your gentoo directory containing
IndexOptions FoldersFirst FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=*
so people can actually see the entire file names. 
you can add it to your apache conf if you don't want the .htaccess to be seen from ftp.

Heh, good call...  Output should look a lot better now.

Hmm... the lack of action has actually made me reconsider this.  No worries, we're actually going to free up the drive space.
