On the Cygwin mirrors page "http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html";, under

rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
Now: The http and rsync links have been removed.
Question: Why are the rsync links disappearing as Cygwin mirrors;
especially since using rsync to mirror Cygwin is cleaner than fussing
with either ftp or http?
Thanks,

The ftp and http links both work but the rsync link gives a rsync error
because "sources.redhat.com" has been changed to "sourceware". Changing
the rsync link to either of:
rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
or
rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/
works as does changing them all to:
ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/
http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/
rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/
