I've already acquired the domains freebsd.org.in and freebsdindia.com But right now the main issue is of bandwidth in India so I was thinking of setting up the Mirror on a US based server with good connectivity to India. I currently have few servers with a datacentre in US and they are now about to get bandwidth from Tata Communications which is an Indian Company and have good connectivity to all major Indian ISP's as Tata Communications is one of the largest bandwidth provider in India. Please suggest if I should go for it? And if I setup the mirror can I get it listed as official mirror of freebsd.org for India and whenever bandwidth conditions improves in India or if I can get any sponsor in India for hosting the mirror I can move the site to an Indian Server. I can sponsor and maintain the mirror server in US till I get some sponsor for Indian Server. Please give your thoughts about it. Kapil Jain
