Today the list is available in the following formats: - today's master source rfc822: http://cvs.debian.org/webwml/webwml/english/mirror/Mirrors.masterlist (used by d-i choose-mirror) - YAML after http://teubr.eu.org/~spaillar/debian/qamirrors/Mirror-list-to-yaml.pl back to rfc822 using http://teubr.eu.org/~spaillar/debian/qamirrors/yaml-to-mirror-list.pl I saw that many apt-spy netslect-apt and others try to parse html produced on the website...
