may be before any sanction better explain how to properly configure
mirror ? I just tried to find out any instruction on new server but
stuck with links to wwwmaster.postgresql.org, Why there are many links

on download page ftp mirror selecttion linked to
http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/download/mirrors-ftp.

Also, I couldn't figure out where I could download Windows binary.
