ibiblio.org mirroring broken

A few days ago, someone contacted me. He wanted to mirror Puppy Linux off ibiblio.org, but their rsync server seems not to be working. I asked him to contact ibiblio.org.
Just now I have looked at nluug.nl, and see that they have not updated since June 8:
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/quirky/
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/puppylinux/
Ditto here:
ftp://sunsite.icm.edu.pl/pub/Linux/sunsite.unc.edu/distributions/quirky/
However, these guys still have working mirroring:
http://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/linux/quirky/
Hmmm. I have sent an email to nluug.nl.

Seems fixed now. Just checked nluug and aarnet. Be aware that UOC must monitor changes on ibiblio more closely, either with a keen eye or a smart script. When the mirror issues occurred earlier this year UOC was the only one to keep up. They use wget when rsync fails AFAIK.
