I am a firm believer in the Open Source philosophy – we are greater than the sum of our parts.

To this end I am an official mirror for a number of open source software:

  • mozilla.org
  • openoffice.org
  • getdeb.net
  • playdeb.net
  • hostip.info

mozilla.org is probably best known for its web browser Firefox, although there are many strings to Mozilla’s bow other than that.

openoffice.org is an open source office suite that is compatible with the Microsoft (TM) Office package.

getdeb.net and playdeb.net are complimentary repositories, getdeb.net focuses on software packages and playdeb.net focuses on games.  They provide prepackaged .deb files with all dependencies suitable for debian based linux such as ubuntu where the original release is only available as source code.

hostip.info is a constantly updated geolocation database similar to maxmind and geoip but without any attached fees for usage.

If you have open source and require a stable mirror then don’t hesitate to get in contact with me and we can discuss it.
