There is some scepticism on reddit:

- someone needs to check the hashes to make sure nothing was altered (to ease the paranoid)
- does the mirrored site still link to sourceforge? If so Iranians would still be prohibited from downloading right?

I'm doing this for three reasons:

0. Iceland rocks and http://immi.is looks a reality. Go freedom.
1. The world should be able to download their bits as desired without letting some scared corporate lawyers dictate yes or no.
2. I want to host a complete copy of the bitcoin site with binaries on a piratebox with no internet access. I already can do this with Tor, because they put everything locally and provide a quick and easy rsync share. The tor site mirror is roughly 6 GB, which includes all binaries for all operating systems, and fits easily on a 16GB usb drive.

However, any smart person will not trust me. You should check the binaries, the hashes, and everything I've done to mirror the site.

Right now, I have not had time to patch the site to remove the reliance on sf.net and googlecode/googleapis. When I do figure out the patches, I intend to publish my git repo so others can clone/pull and check it out. I don't use github or other social networking technologies like it (facebook, twitter, sourceforge, etc).
