In order to fight the misconception that public-inboxes are
centralized, anchor "#mirror" to the clone instructions and
place an emphasis on "mirror", not just cloning.
While we're at it, better describe multi-epoch -V2 inboxes,
since some users do not seem to realize epochs consist of
different data.

2020-09-08 8:29 [PATCH] www: make mirror instructions more prominent Eric Wong
This is a public inbox, see mirroring instructions
for how to clone and mirror all data and code used for this inbox;
as well as URLs for read-only IMAP folder(s) and NNTP newsgroup(s).
