This mirror could be relatively simply supported by setting up an
additional remote in the server side repositories and adding a post-receive
hook to each repository that simply pushes to the GitHub mirror remote
after commits are received.

Having an easily browsable source repository online is a pretty valuable
thing, it is a shame to lose this.
