don't remember exactly who that guy was, but could dig, if necessary.

This one is under our control. It was the very first server the former
PrOOo-Box was build on.

This one is under my control - my private webserver.

I once set up that module to serve those mirrors that already were in place to
serve as seeders for the former PrOOo-Box.

exactly that is the reason it exists. It was a 5 minute action to setup and
it's running upto now.

I surely won't start to fiddle with rss, so my private seed will stop after
closing the module and the goettingen server will as well - in case nobody will
change that system.
I'm quite sure there is no feed in place. But I might be wrong with this.

- It's by far the easiest way to automatically donate traffic for the LibO-Box
  exclusively.
- It is the successor of the former PrOOo-Box instant testing network.
