I've given access to the rsync server to a few vendors already.

Also, Sunsite UK is mirroring the images:

  http://sunsite.org.uk/packages/debian-cd/

which means there is little reason for the ``public'' to be interested in
getting access to the master site (since Imperial College has bucket loads of 
more bandwidth than my machine)

More mirrors in the states would be good, but people have started volunteering 
now that I've made access to the master images conditional on doing so (or 
being a vendor ;-)

I guess an announcement on debian-cd telling vendors to ask me for access,
before they need it, would be a good idea.  (there is a debian-cd list for cd 
vendors, right ?)

Cheers, Phil.
