I will ask my employer (WorldOnline, ISP in Holland) if we are willing
to run a mirror when the main site comes available. 

We  will not be able to run the main site, since it was stated clearly
it would run on a box that would have to run Linux, and we have Solaris
as our choice of OS. A mirror would be no problem I guess..

Space and speed won't be the problem

 Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s3    38785000 5007657 29898843    15%    /home
