Thanks! Basically, I am going to put some "permanent" documents
from the CDROM into a web (i.e. which do not often change).
I just want to be sure that I will not receive "please do not
do that" emails in future.
BTW, I would like to discuss in a separate thread about
the CDROM itself.

However, the interpretation of "We generally do not encourage
creating new Debian web site mirrors" are:
$ rsync www.uk.debian.org::

debian-web:
The "debian-web" share is now restricted to tier 2 mirrors,
at the request of our webmasters. If you have any queries
about this, please direct them to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

$ rsync www.debian.org.hk::

Latest news:
The "debian-www" module is no longer accessible for anonymous
rsync, at the request of the webmasters. If you have any queries
about this, please direct them to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(or read "http://www.debian.org/mirror/webmirror" for details)

The result was:
- The webmasters are not going to change their mirror policy,
and
- I am not going to follow their policy.
