    1.13        Obviously, nothing prevents you from using a mirror that is in fact
    1.14        *not* on your LAN, for example on another subnet of your company's
    1.15        network, or a mirror on the Internet.

    1.17 +      I (Yann E. MORIN) have set up such a mirror to host snapshots of
    1.18 +      some components, when those snapshots are volatile on the upstream
    1.19 +      servers. The mirror is *slow*, because it is hosted behind an ADSL
    1.20 +      line. For the time being, I haven't set up bandwidth limitations,
    1.21 +      but should the mirror be abused, I will. Please avoid using my
    1.22 +      machine when you can...
