Hi everyone, WMF constantly releases dumps <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data_dumps>of Wikipedia and other WMF projects. As these are huge files and download is difficult, there is a constant need of mirrors. The current mirrors are listed at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mirroring_Wikimedia_project_XML_dumps#Current_Mirrors but need some organization. Ariel Glenn (CC'ed), who is responsible of XML dumps, is looking for somebody who can help organize the mirrors so that people trying to donwload the dumps are offered the closest geographically up-to-date mirror as it is usually done at other donwload sites. Does anyone have experience with this?
Also, if anypne has idea of organizations, which might be willing to host a mirror ( requirements here<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mirroring_Wikimedia_project_XML_dumps#Requirements>), please let me or Ariel know.
