GNU archive site
<body> The main
GNU FTP archive is on gnu.org but copies ("mirrors") of some or all of the files there are also held on many other computers around the world.
To avoid overloading gnu.org and the
Internet you should
FTP files from the machine closest to yours (you may be able to use
traceroute to determine which is logically closest if it's not obvious from the transfer rate).
Trans-ocean
TCP/IP links are very expensive and usually very slow.
The following hosts mirror GNU files.
Look for a directory like /pub/gnu, /mirrors/gnu, /systems/gnu or /archives/gnu. Electronic mail addresses of administrators and
Internet addresses are given for some hosts.
