Nanjing University

NJU Mirror (open-source software mirror)

The university's public open-source mirror, run by the NJU e-Science Center and open to anyone on the internet. Beyond the package trees themselves, the site serves JSON configuration endpoints that are ordinary unauthenticated reads: /configs/news/index.json (announcements), /configs/documentations/index.json (the mirrored-distribution help index, 18.5KB), and /configs/cards/esci.json (the e-Science service directory). It does not publish a MirrorZ /mirrorz.json descriptor — that was probed and returns 404.
