I would dismantle it completely, and just point people to the Debian
archive.  Providing Ed keeps on the ball with new releases, you shouldn't
need your own copy.

Saying that, it might be wise to have a mirror there as well, just link
to it last and say it is just an unofficial mirror.

Cool!  I don't know who and how has to actually do this (Debian have
"ports" teams that recompile lots of packages for a particular architecutre
and upload them), but I'm sure we'll find out soon.
