I know most of the hostels have wi-fi access so they may be<br>
downloading stuff, also they do have a 3-d printer so files for that<br>
would be somewhat heavy I imagine, apart from that, yes if they want<br>
they can dedicate bandwidth for mirror hosting.<br>
<br>
There was talk couple of years ago to have mirrors of foss distros.<br>
and also make them available via wi-fi to people around campus as well<br>
as radius of around 200 metres or so people could download distros,<br>
updates etc. but the discussion went no-where.<br>
<br>
Keeping mirror current and fixing when it goes down is dedicated work,<br>
it's upto the COEP folks and their mgmt. if they want to take up the<br>
challenge.<br>
