Hi,
Anyone knows what happened to Jakob? Looks like he didn't respond to any mirror requests for the last 5 months[1].

CC'ing arch-dev-public and Jakob for a wider audience. Discussion should probably continue on arch-mirrors.
I have been getting to these on occasion when I have the time, but could really use some help if someone wants to step up and volunteer, current developer or not. I don't even know most of these tickets exist since they aren't assigned to me and I don't regularly search for them.
Let me know if you are interested in helping, it consists of probably 15-30 minutes a week on average of the following type of stuff:
* Keeping an eye on the mirror status page for out-of-date or broken mirrors and notifying admins via email * Adding new mirrors as necessary, and deciding when to say no to a request * Responding to tickets with insufficient info

Joannes Löthberg (demize on IRC, Kyrias on Flyspray) has expressed an interest in helping out here. He's been poking some of the mirror-related requests on Flyspray recently, essentially already doing the first and third mentioned responsibilities. d
