[Haskell-cafe] Offer to mirror Hackage

[Markus Läll]

My take on the issue is that we should make it possible to easily mirror
hackage (what the OP asked for), so that people could use it when they
wanted to, and have a list of the mirrors on the wiki. This way those who
are interested can use them. Like when the mirror is faster/closer to them
or to help out when hackage is temporarily down. Those who need the security
can choose not to use mirrors, or make their own (private), or develop a
secure scheme, when it doesn't exist yet.

It's perfectly understandable, that people doing work/serious stuff need the
guarantees, but I bet a many of us are just playing around and developing
things for themselves.
