Read-only mirrors, or RW?  Read-only mirrors have been done and can be 
set up with a file update service app (there are a few, no links handy). 
  RW is not an easy thing to do, nor is recommended with CVSNT.

Arch supposedly supports distributes repositories, but I'm not certain 
if / how it handles remote replicas with connectivity problems.
