Inspired by the post of the same name by unknown.

Referring to this: forum.linuxcnc.org/29-forum-announcement...unsanctioned-mirrors

First of all, does <removed> count as a mirror?

It's not a real mirror, it's an A record to the IP of forum.linuxcnc.org in my Cloudflare DNS.

Second of all, I assume <removed> counts and must be removed from posts (bla bla bla) because it's served from Cloudflare Pages from my fork of the LinuxCNC/wlo repo.

Third of all, I assume <removed> totally counts as it is a mirror in every sense of the term, and I assume this site is what prompted this notice.

However, if a link is explicitly labeled as being an unofficial mirror, is it allowed?

If I say "You can also download ISO files from my unsanctioned, unofficial mirror, which is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in any way connected with the LinuxCNC foundation and/or its members at <link>", is that allowed?

They all count and will be removed.  

Keep it up and you will be banned.
