Ok that is dumb! are there any statistics for the mirror? maybe if the argument is backed up by numbers ... and maybe we should pick this up with the Malta Internet Foundation who run MIX as their stated aim is " Our vision for the Internet in Malta is centred around a community of users and providers of information, entertainment, educational material, communication, and online access to commercial services. A key requirement for such a community to develop is cheap, fast and reliable access for the greatest possible number of users and providers. " which are more or less the same reasons why the mirror exists :-P

According to my last conversation with Maltanet, the traffic from the mirror is accounted to as foreign traffic. We already pointed this out from an MLUG perspective about this. I guess it should now come from the ISP users. The mirror is bandwidth limited from both downstream as well as upstream.
