Thanks to all for the recent messages in this thread, there's some good
info in there.
Unfortunately, if the estimate of 70MB/day for woody update traffic is
even close, I will have a very hard time justifying hosting a mirror at
work. We currently mirror redhat and mandrake updates from aarnet,
which would only have a tiny part of that traffic over a length of time.
The approach is that we buy CDs of new releases when required, and use a
tiny bit of bandwidth for the updates. Debian doesn't fit that model
very well.
Oh well, thanks anyway.
