The provider of the server used for uk2 kept shutting down the server not starting it back up. The UK mirror has been having out of memory issues and has needed quite a few reboots recently to try and keep it online due to the load - the memory in the server has been increased just now and it's syncing again so hopefully this will resolve any problems on the uk.php.net mirror. Would it make it any easier to reduce the load slightly by making it UK2 or UK3? All you'd have to do is change the VirtualHost directive, and I'd just need to update DNS. If so, just let me know and I'm happy to help.
