Dear PHP.net Mirror Maintainers!
You are the maintainers of the only two mirrors left without
proper .php.net mirror names. We are moving to using these
names because it enables us to offer many more interesting
services for our users (like language preference for users on
all mirror sites using a cookie). These are only doable if we
can move all the mirror sites to be under .php.net.
php.unam.mx and php.ca are the only two left to convert now,
so we would like to ask you to make the neccessary modifications
to serve .php.net mirror requests too.
What this means? php.ca is going to be ca3.php.net, php.unam.mx
becomes mx2.php.net. You should set up your Apache accordingly
to serve requests for those names (with the www. prefix too).
You can find more information about the actual Apache setup
recommendation at http://php.net/mirroring
php.ca also seems to be significantly outdated, so it is
automatically excluded from our mirror site listing. It would
be nice to make it work, or inform us, if you would not like
to continue to host your PHP mirror site, Paul.
Thanks for your support on behalf of the PHP Webmasters Team,
Goba [one webmaster@php.net]
