Hello ,
My name is Ray Sison, and I'm with Go-Parts.com. I'm writing to ask if
you would be interested in hosting Jenkins on a free download mirror?
Go-Parts is providing mirrors free of charge to software providers .
As you know, hosting mirrors offer you and your users several benefits,
including:
- An always-on backup of the latest version of your software, should
your main server ever go down
- More bandwidth so that more users can download your program
- Global access to high-traffic countries around the world
- Greater security - In case your site is hacked or security is
threatened, you'll always have a fresh, clean version of the program on
the mirrored server(s)
Again, there's no cost involved for you. We're doing this as part of a
global campaign to help
software developers reach more users around the world, and we'd love for
you to be a part of it!
Please let me know if this is something you'd be interested in. Thank
you for your time!
Best,
Ray Sison

More mirrors are always a good thing, so thanks for the offer :)
But you're likely to get more attention by posting on the infrastructure
mailing list (which I have CC'd in any case):

In this hypothetical situation, as a mirror, you would have no idea
whether the main site had been compromised, so you'd likely be serving
possibly-compromised files anyway..?
