Re: new romanian mirror

The central rsync server simply cannot handle even the current number of mirrors. In times of new releases, some mirror sites are only updated after days, because the only one rsync server is bogged down. There were some tries to make more rsync servers but that was forgotten somehow. James was on the way to propose a new mirroring rule set, but it seems he had no time for that. > Also, while we're talking about DNS, what do people think about doing > away with ro, ro2, ro3, etc., and just setting ro.php.net to round-robin > between all the Romanian mirrors? of course, I'm not talking about just > ro ... this would apply to all the countries. XX.php.net would be a > round robin entry for all the mirrors, but you could still access the > mirrors individually as XX1, XX2, etc. Well, it would be nice, but for the first time, that would mean that all mirrors need to be shifted one number up, or xx.php.net's will become max(xxnumbers("xx.php.net")) + 1 . ".php.net"; to free up the xx.php.net names to be round robin addresses. Goba
