No, not an accident. There are two sors of mirrors. Ones that we distribute content "in private" 
to, to "prime" the mirror system, and ones that simply sync periodically from what we offer 
publicly. See http://download.documentfoundation.org/mirroring.html for more details about this 
distinction. TU-BS just gets the files that are already public, so there was no way it could have 
the files at the time you checked. (Except by syncing from a mirror that got it from the stage 
area, instead of syncing from us - because we forgot to make the new directory private this time.)

In addition, there is the little network/scan problem between us and this particular mirror at this 
time, which can further get in the way.

Sorry, what do you mean by this? Care to explain?
