Actually we still want mirrors of the revision texts and the mysql tables [1], and we do not yet have a mirror of the image data. If anyone has contacts at a university with good bandwidth and 6T + of space lying around for a good cause...

If I remember correctly, a backup of database is in a public folder, so anyone can download it. Some people do it, to run analysis and do some interesting science/tech projects. If the FBI and the Interpol put the wikimedia people in jail (thats not going to happend), anybody in a country withouth extradition treaty to USA can recreate it.
So, the wikimedia organization can be killed, but the data is public and mirrored "enough" so probably can't be killed as easy.
