This is the Debian Linux prepackaged version of the mirror utility.  Mirror
was written by Lee McLoughlin <lmjm@doc.ic.ac.uk>.

This package was put together by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@qed.econ.queensu.ca>
from the sources obtained from
	src.doc.ic.ac.uk/packages/mirror/mirror-2.8.tar.gz

Some small changes made were: adding the Debian packages management control
files and changing some values in the file `mirror.defaults' (which can be
used to override defaults set in the perl source code), commenting out the
test for 'compress' (as Debian uses the GNU gzip compression program),
supplying examples and a mirror.defaults file.

The following copyright statement appears in mirror.pl
   
   You can do what you like with this except claim that you wrote it or
   give copies with changes not approved by Lee.  Neither Lee nor any other
   organisation can be held liable for any problems caused by the use or
   storage of this package.
