New description:
It's clear that as torproject.org is blocked, spoofed, or otherwise
unavailable, we need a better way to get our software to those who desire
Tor for whatever reason.
Here are some functions I'd like a new mirror system to have:
1. rsync, https, and bittorrent distribution of the site and packages.
1. automatic push to mirrors of only the out-of-date files (html,
packages, css, etc). perhaps start with notification or automatic pull
from the mirrors.
1. ability to confirm the mirrored files are 100% the same as those on
torproject.org (hashing, pgp signatures, etc)
1. ability to automatically remove mirrors that are not serving the exact
same files after some time period (hours preferably).
1. ability to automatically re-instate mirrors that were not 100% mirrors
of torproject.org once they have been verified to be back in sync (and
serving valid copies).
1. supports IPv4 and IPv6 addressing.
