You're welcome to set up a mirror of the gimp FTP server, hints for the
procedure are available at http://www.gimp.org/webmasters.html.
If your mirror works in a reasonable manner (i.e. the pages are not
riddled with ads and/or tracking cookies) we'll add you to the list on
this page:
  http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

To be informed about new downloads you can mirror our server via rsync
in regular intervals and watch what changed, or you subscribe to the
usual mailinglists and wait for the announcements.

Note that there are tons of redactionally maintained download portals
shipping gimp. To my knowledge we do not yet have any dedicated
partnership with individual portals, and in my opinion we'd need some
*very* strong arguments to start with singeling out individual partners.

I hope this helps,
        Simon
