Does that mean I must now apply? as an official mirror to sync from a 
Tier-1 mirror?
If so what is the procedure to apply as an official mirror to gain 
access to sync, but not have the mirror appear in any public mirrorlist, 
do I simply request it not be added?

Also, that wiki lacks info so barring the above option, does anyone know 
which Tier-2 syncs most often or how up-to-date they are(guaranteed by 
policy)? In my case I'm looking for a Tier-2 in the US that syncs at 
least once a day as the ibiblio mirror hasn't sync'ed in the last 2 days 
AFAICT.

More context: my mirror is the A.R.M arm.konnichi.com and it syncs once 
per day, no more, no less. I don't particularly care where I sync from, 
I just need it to be up-to-date every day. As I said, that wiki lacks 
info so if I'm missing something feel free to tell me to go RTMF 
providing you also point me to that manual(mailing list doesn't count).
Thanks.
