Create a general-purpose labs download server for big files
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Something like 'download.wmflabs.org' or 'bff.wmflabs.org'. This will be download-only for the public and (in the short-run at least) adding new files will be an admin-only task.

To add new files, copy them to download-01.download.eqiad.wmlabs:/srv/public_files/

Everything is local instance storage, which means no NFS (yay!) but also no backups (boo)
