Just stop blocking the live mirrors. Then start working with the mirrors to come up with a way to be more efficient for both parties.
In an exchange with Gregory Maxwell it came up that I haven't actually asked for permission to do this. So just to be sure I'm posting this request here:
I'd like to run a live mirror of Wikipedia without any advertising. I'd put the live pages into the robots.txt file so search engines would only be allowed to access my local cache, and thus wouldn't cause any extra traffic for Wikimedia. So can I have permission to do this?
