What I would like to see is NL taking a bit of DE instead of everything. Maybe introduce some sort of penalty when it's no balance between the mirrors?

I guess CN is taken care by the US mirror, so not much to do there.

The purpose of mirrors is to keep the data available for end users.
At the same time we don't want mirrors in the loop that are out of sync.

How does one handle that the rsync source is not available? It's even worse if rsync was firewalled, but not HTTP.

One idea comes to mind and that is to use the timestamps from all the other mirrors instead and pick the latest one. No mirror should be behind more than 6-12 hours from that server.

The docker files should just be a complement, not a requirement.
