Hi all (intentionally not flooding php-mirrors@)
How do you guys feel about tweaking our mirror infrastructure a little
by making countrycode.php.net a round robin to
countrycode[1,2,3].php.net?
That would mean that _all_ mirrors would have to update their
ServerAlias (to listen to countrycode.php.net, and existing
countrycode.php.net would need to "rename" themselfs to
countrycode1.php.net).
This would fix the situation when the countrycode.php.net mirror
becomes inactive, and therefore breaking for people writing
countrycode.php.net directly (which surprisingly many people do).
It would also workaround situations like mentioned in #61146..
