Two Staging mirroring

It is required that mirrors use a two stage mirroring process for Ubuntu archives. This is required to avoid errors caused by mirrors running an rsync update and
updating the package index files before the corresponding packages are available. You can find more information on this here:

Register your mirror

We have transferred our Ubuntu mirror pages to a new Launchpad mirror verification and publication system. The aim of this service is to replace the manually maintained download pages with a more detailed and complete automated reporting system. One of the most important features of the new service is that it allows mirror administrators to self publish detailed information about their mirrors and maintain that information using the Launchpad interface.

Please submit the details of your mirror using the following URL:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+newmirror

You will need to register your mirror separately for Ubuntu archives and Ubuntu releases.

If you have not already done so, you will need to to create a Launchpad user account before you can submit your mirror. After your mirror is registered we will manually review and verify the entry to ensure the person or organisation submitting the entry is the owner or administrator of the mirror. Once verified, the mirror will be marked as an official mirror.  Verification of newly submitted mirrors can take up to 48 hours before being published as official mirrors.

If your mirror is not submitted to Launchpad it will not be listed on the download page.
