hi axxs-sysadmin,

A brief intro: i'm boud, a volunteer in imc poland, hoping to get our
city (well, town really) collective (Toruń) organised as an autonomous
local imc, but that's still something for the future - this email is
about imc poland tech support.  Our imc-pl-tech group is small,
essentially there's just piotr and i, and we don't have enough time to
do much nor do it systematically, though the actual server collectives
are much wider indymedia collectives. Most people (non-techies) active
in imc poland do (more or less) speak English, but prefer not to read
English unless they really have to, and also are not terribly "techie".

Our present setup is mir with the dynamic server on kosmos (so there's
a collective managing that) and just one static mirror on ahimsa*
(there's another collective managing that).  From what i understand,
we have to find a new static mirror, and even if we don't, it can't
hurt to have extra static mirrors.

i don't have exact statistics on our bandwidth pressure, but it should
be something like:

1-2 Gb /day
1-2 million hits/month

So here's my question: would it be possible for us (imc poland) to have
a static mirror on axxs.org ?  This would function by rsync's from the
dynamic server, once each 5 minutes or so.

solidarity
boud
