Indeed and that is the UK mirror I now use. But the sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk
mirror most definitely used to exist and I wondered if anybody knew why
(if?) it had been terminally discontinued.

It's a very useful mirror for all UK academics because it's on the JANET
super-fast network. It may be just a question of writing to someone
(webmaster) there and asking to go on mirroring but I though I'd first ask
if anyone had any relevant info.
