Re: Acceptance & Questions

Hi Ali! Most of the mirrors have 'quality support' in the sense, that if we find a problem on a mirror, it is fixed in days (and sometimes hours). Also we have really few complaints from users of mirrors, and I have not seen any complaint I can remember about the Turkish mirrors. By adding an indefinite number of mirrors per country, we actualy make our task harder, since more mirrors could fail, and also our rsync server could be very busy, especially at release times, when a lot of new data needs to be sycned to the mirrors. That said, unless we have problems with mirrors, we keep the first-come-first-registered rule. (BTW while arguing about quality support, you have not noticed that there were multiple recipients in my mail. Since the webmaster address is a mailing list, and there are more people there, who might provide their opinions, it is advised that the webmaster list is kept in the loop). Thanks for your offer anyway, Gabor Hojtsy Ali VARGONEN wrote:

Dear Gabor Hojtsy, Is not it important that the quality of your mirrors and the teams behind them? or is it a rule that whatever the mirrors are at the number of 2 it is ok for you? I am offering you a quality and support to help everything that you could need in our area, but if your last word is if we have 2 mirrors we will not get more, I will not think about the quality with the name of php.net I hope you will understand my words, I am at your side.
