That's certainly what we've been planning on, that anyone can run a mirror, no permissions needed. The issue people have raised is what about having public mirrors that are used automatically or semi-automatically by clients.

The other reason I've been thinking about this is the scoutess project.  More public testing or continuous integration facilities would require more hardware resources.

The computer it's running on has 16 cores and 48GB of ram. I have access to a few other computers like this.

Cheers, David
