Bandwidth needs are pretty intense.  Consider that at least somebody 
once a week is going to get the bright idea to pull down the entire 
tree, some 5~ GB worth of data.  Invariably, this person will be on 
broadband, and thus will use every ounce of your available upstream to 
pull it down ):  You can throttle and such, but still people will want 
to download.  Most mirrors you find out there are University like folks 
that have bandwidth to spare.

We don't have any coordinated efforts just yet.  Most things come 
through me.  Eric Rostetter is currently in charge of the website, we 
both work on it together.  (Well he works on it, I say "wow, that looks 
great!").
