Thanks for your mirror submission.

There are some details to fix before we can add you mirror to the list.
(Basically, there are detailed on http://debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror)

Source packages are mandatory, please don't exclude them.

Please switch to the ftpsync tool to sync your mirror: it ensures mirror
availability during the sync, easy mirror update, correct arch specific
files exclusion, and much more..

You may try hanzubon.jp (which is the main backend of ftp.jp.debian.org).

See rsync hanzubon.jp::debian which *is* an archive mirror.
(or ftp.jp.d.o ..)

Peering, as opposed to transit; maybe you are connected to peer
networks, so that users from these peer networks get quite high speed
data to your mirror, without much extra transit costs for you.
