And now that my eyes are open a bit better I see they
don't actually
mirror the backup-index.html file. So where did you find that link?
I don't see it here:
Some of the most recent dumps links are
broken[1].

As the subject says, the first mirror of our XML dumps is up,
hosted at
C3Sl in BRazil. We're really excited about it. Details are
listed on
the main index page on our download server
(
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/ ) and are reproduced below for
everyone's
convenience:
Site: Centro de Computação Científica e Software Livre (C3SL),
at the
Universidade Federal do Paraná in Brazil.
Contents: the 5 most current complete and successful dumps of
each
project
Access: HTTP:

A big thank you to the folks there for providing the space and
working
with us to make it happen.
Please forward this on to researchers or others who might want
to know
about it but aren't on these lists.
