It is a site with a duplicate of the original site on it, that is linked to automatically update when the original is updated. They provide two things: 1. a dupicate backup of the main site; 2. A secondary site so that by using the mirror you avoid the bandwidth congestion on the main site.

What I can offer is to mirror the current PUG on my website, unfortunately there
is not room for an archive. Maybe a couple of others could do so as well. If we
have a few mirrors up, the PUG will not be so much at the mercy of the donor
site, nor soak up all the bandwidth on one persons (Adelheid's) personal site as
I imagine the current situation does.
