Checksums need to be mirrored as well, otherwise having mirrors is a waste of money because PyPi main server being slow ends up with whole download failing. If this is the wrong bug tracker, please advice me to the right one so this can be resolved.

Hello,

The PyPI bug tracker is over here (you can find the link on the front
page of http://pypi.python.org/pypi):

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=66150&atid=513503


That said, having checksums come from the master server exclusively
seems like a security feature, so I'm not sure whether your suggestion
will be considered.

In any case, mirrors *do* mirror the checksums.
