As a user of the public UDD mirror: To me, the public UDD mirror appears to be
vital for my automated software analysis infrastructure, as I'd rather not have
a daemon automatically SSH into a d.o host. Can I turn the question around
maybe: why is our UDD master *not* public? I suppose it is a matter of guarding
against denial-of-service attacks, but seemingly others don't care about that
aspect then?

Best,
Michael
