Perhaps two logos? One pointing to iBiblio as the LDP's primary sponsor, 
and the other pointing to the sponsor for that mirror. iBiblio deserves 
major recognition for their role. But having run a Red Hat mirror myself 
previously, I think the people who are donating hardware, space, and 
bandwidth to be a local LDP mirror also deserve to be thanked... it's 
costing them time and money, and if we can say "thanks" that way then we've 
done a Good Thing [tm].

Cheers,
