I'm already working on this; I have a mirror I am testing in the Sydney region, accessible only within the region to keep traffic costs miminal. Its around 200 GB of RRS storage, and currently works off cron 4 times per day. For sources.list:
I envisage having this stable, and set up for mirror pulse, in the next week or so, and will then start to deploy similar in other regions. Once this is done, I'll look at the http.debian.net mirror redirector service to have it direct clients from within the AWS Regions to transparently use this mirror. (For extra points, we'll then possibly look at hosting some http.debian.net redirector nodes!)

Dear all,
as discussed in earlier threads, it would be great to mirror the Debian archive
in the Amazon cloud, in order to speed up and cut costs on operations with
Debian images that we provide there.
Is there anybody who knows where is the source code of the system used by
Ubuntu to mirror its archive there ?
Have a nice week-end,
