Needless to say that I'm one of those badly hurt by unavailability.

I simply cannot compile/run Scala Native since it depends on clang-3.8 :-(

Have you guys considered mirroring the APT repository?
Do you guys need a hand to investigate how your APT repository could be 
mirrored by, say...

Thanks a lot,
