First of all, thanks for this! Couple of notes though: - I haven't seen the link to the script that does the mirroring I guess that is kept somewhere right? :) Making it public so that others (after being installed in git.gnome.org of course) can add their own choice (why not a launchpad one? or gitorious as others pointed out...) would be nice.
- is *all* GNOME modules going to be there (setting aside the opt-in/out being discussed)? I don't see damned-lies for example All in all, the more GNOME is spread the better, and at the end of the day, a mirror is a mirror, nothing without the source it mirrors.
