It would be great if somebody could find the time to tackle one or the other. I personally have an very limited time budget for open source at the moment and I need to focus that on vibe.d for a bit.

I have VPS in Czech republic
120GB ssd + 250GB NAS
4G RAM
8 cores
3TB bandwidth per month

So I belive I am able to provide mirror :)

In general issue is not with connectivity to China but with
GFW (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Firewall), So you would need
some VPS inside china, unfortunately AFAIK all VPS inside Hong Kong are
outside of GFW so it is still posible it would not help.

But in our company we have VPS inside GFW (for our chinese customers),
so maybe I could ask if they dont mind to provide it for dub
mirror purpose

When you get mirror mode working, please make an anouncement so that I can contact you about setting up the mirror. I can afford to increase VPS capacity to 2GB Mem/60GB disc or something similar if neccessary.

Yes, GFW is the main problem. What's more, to setup a HTTP site in China, one has to file for permission from the govt.

Yes, we have ICP number, so in theory it should be possible to make mirror in China

Exactly!
