Hello,
Thanks for your feedback.
As i told, we are fully open to host php project, but that is a decision
that should be taken by PHP group managing people.
Describing NFSi, we are an Hosting and Colocation provider based in
Portugal.
We have our own network based on AS25137 (1), and also well connected to
Internet, having presence in GigaPIX (2) and AMS-IX (3).
(1) - Autonomous System 25137
http://www.radb.net/cgi-bin/radb/whois.cgi?obj=AS25137
(2) - Gigabit Portuguese Internet Exchange

(3) - Amsterdam Internet Exchange
http://www.ams-ix.net/
I think that is a bad policy for you to have TWO mirrors either in the
same AS either in the same Network.
It would be much better to have two mirrors in different AS/Networks for
a country.
Even the worse problem is that since PTM.com (Portugal Telecom aka the
incumbent) have a strict peering policy, and you have a lot of
Portuguese Users connected thru some ISP's that don't have direct
peering with Portugal Telecom, where the traffic goes up to London or
Amsterdam and came back.
You should choose another mirror for php.pt hosted in a network rich in
peering, at least in Portugal.
I will not beg anymore for this. If you want a not-so-indecent mirror in
.pt, just drop me an email.
