## Running a mirror
There are 3 things you need to run a mirror;
1. A tool to perform the mirroring (e.g. `mirror.sh` in this repository); we
encourage diversity in this area.
2. A server on which to host the mirror; this should have HTTP support, and
optionally HTTPS. It is of greatly diminished utility if it does not support
plain HTTP.
3. Automatic updates. This should involve updating the Git repository and
updating the mirror as required.
