[Ambassadors] Portable mirror?

[Scott Williams]

  Chris,

They were wanting to have something on site for the LAN.  Last year the 
network was very overtaxed so they wanted local mirrors rather than 
everyone hitting outside mirrors.  Ideally either we can bring a box to 
act as a server during the event or we could upload a somewhat recent 
mirror sync to their server prior to the event.
