According to

http://www.pypi-mirrors.org/

3 out of 8 PyPI mirror are out of date or not available.

This is not good for the PyPI reputation.

Of course mirror can have problems for a while but the
maintainers should feel in charge of maintaining
and checking their mirrors regularly.

I propose that an obvious unmaintained mirror should be removed
(temporarily) if it has not been updated after N days. Right now
N = 50 and N = 69 which is hardly acceptable.
