I used the waiting time during the backup upload to prepare a

Would be good if someone could have a look. Once this is
merged, anyone can run this on a server using `./dub-registry
--mirror https://code.dlang.org/` and then forward incoming
requests using a reverse proxy to http://127.0.0.1:8005.
In the current form, this will enable manual fallback in the
form of users specifying
--registry=https://some.code.dlang.mirror on the DUB command
line. In the future we can then keep a list of official mirrors
as DNS entries (maybe of the form mirror1.dub.pm) and let DUB
use those automatically.
Awesome work!
I setup a testing instance at alpha.dub.pm, so in case someone
wants to give it a try with DUB directly, you can use sth. like
dub fetch --registry=http://alpha.dub.pm/ -v mir-algorithm
