Reason for closing:  Implemented
Additional comments about closing:  Added as a main mirror for now, we'll discuss tiering elsewhere

Added. As you are syncing from a secondary mirror, I did not add the IP to our rsync list. In the future, if you need to rsync from archlinux.org, please reopen this ticket for that

We would like to sync from the main site unless it is overcrowded alreadly. Let me
know what is best and we will do accordingly

Hmmm, do we want to start moving to a tiered rsync system, guys?

Yeah, we really need to do something, but I don't know what the (free/cheap) answer is.

Yes now that Arch is gaining momentum I think it is a good idea to have tiered mirroring. What is the load
on a typical day on the main server ?
