I installed Peters script on the primary mirror some time ago:
  http://mirror.opencsw.org/status/
The list is also kept in sync with the official mirror list on the orga-wiki:
  http://opencsw-orga.wikidot.com/mirror-status
(Sorry, free wiki only supports 5 people on restricted wikis and as the list contains
upstream mirror maintainer names and emails I don't want to make that real public)

I already tried to integrated that into Wordpress, but my WP/PHP foo is too weak.
The data is there, if someone volunteers I can gladly help providing all status
information.


Best regards
