Because it would be nice to have a mirror run by someone (a) accountable (b)
who is unlikely to suddenly disappear due to loss of job, life becoming
hectic, etc.  (Consider that this is pretty much why *.haskell.org has been
unreliable and fixes have been slow in coming; the individual in question is
at Yale, and a good person but kinda snowed under of late.)
