This topic has recently been brought up in comp.sys.amiga.misc, but was also discussed elsewhere before. With what seems like more and more Aminet mirrors closing down or becoming very unreliable, it was suggested that Amiga should host a mirror on their site. Seeing how Aminet is a prime resource for past, present and future Amiga programs and files, I think it would be a sensible decision for Amiga to either host, or sponsor, a dedicated mirror on a reliable server with a good backbone. What do you think?

Aminet mirrors? : Comment 49 of 50 | ANN.lu |
Posted by G.S. Williams on 16-May-2000 22:00 GMT | Greetings from Howick, Auckland, New Zealand.
Hi,
Good, stable Aminet mirror-sites are of great importance to the Amiga fraternity,
therefore, I agree that it would not only be necessary, but vital that Amiga.com
should have a top-end mirror site.
I'm an Amiga owner-user from 'way back, and am a member of Team **AMIGA** and
Amiga Auckland (UG)
If I may add, for us in the outer reaches of everything, the internet is an
important form of communication for us; availability of PD programmes is of
extreme necessity.
New Zealand is almost opposite the UK (actually opposite Spain). The furthest
place from Britain and Europe.
