Thanks for bringing this to our attention Fredy. Most of us would have missed it probably.

It's a pity, they're shutting down this service. This has been an institution. Reliable and trusted.

Unfortunately, there is no real explanation, why they're discontinuing the service. Care to comment, SWITCH, please?

Kind regards,

Viktor

SWITCH announced that they plan to close down mirror.switch.ch. See
announcement http://mirror.switch.ch/

I personally think this is very sad. In the name of the community I
would like to thank SWITCH for their support over all these years.

However I would like to start the discussion how we can keep
mirror.switch.ch alive as a community effort.

Can the decision makers at SWITCH please explain the preconditions?
Funding for new hardware? Throw in some bandwidth? Colocation? Server
management?

Please discuss.
