I agree, Google moves the kernel to a bigger bandwidth capacity and that is something to be thankful.

- dsl 15y agokernel.org is hosted by ISC... beside one of the root DNS servers, distributed.net, debian.org, openbsd.org, and a few others. They were not hurting for bandwidth.
- obtu 15y agoThere were problems of availability for a while after kernel.org got hacked, admins weren't very quick to restore services from a blank slate (I believe git access took four weeks). Some developers mirrored their stuff on github or repo.or.cz, but it wasn't systematic. Auto-mirroring by Google will make verification and disaster-recovery easier and faster.
