I can do symlink and/or GMT naming, as you want.

ftp.gnustep.org is connected to 100 mbps links on peering points in france. 
It's connection to around 5mbps for transit
(on mfnx). But we (Oxymium) pay the traffic.
www.gnustep.org is hosted on 3 differents locations with a DNS round robin 
scheme.

ftp.gnustep.org is mirrored by progeny.com (but files seems to be out of date).
We can set rsync accesses for sites wich want to mirror it.
