Yes I know those sites but I think this method is stupid as it has no benefit 
of the solution of rsync servers and it  has the following disadvantages:
- hosts are backed upo twice => twice more disk activity on the client and not 
cool for the user
- if the file foo.doc is on 3 PCs in site A it'l be transferet 3 times to site 
B and only after that optimized by the pool which is stupid.

if site A crashes, then changing the config of archive hosts to normal host 
should be sufficient rieht?
