Hi Julien,

About "cache or mirror the files you need", Is there any suggestion how to implement this just like setup apt mirror locally?

Thanks.

There are rate limits in place to prevent the service falling over from too many requests.  If you need a particular timestamped snapshot for your project I suggest you cache or mirror the files you need (allowing for the rate limits).
