Inspired by my own e-mail, I have spent the past few
hours checking how many mirrors were currently carrying
non-US, and thus unaffected by the issue. And I must
say the proportion has gone up a lot since I last checked
several months ago. In light of the below results, I drop
my proposals.
P.S. Sorry about the long lines in the table below.
On Sun Jan 28 2001, I did a quick check of all mirrors
listed in README.mirrors.
Each site was manually browsed to see if it appeared to
carry a mirror of non-US, no actual files were downloaded.
Where a site had both ftp and http, ftp was preferred and
http used only if failure.
Summary:
Countries with no non-US mirrors: none (not even US)
Countries where no mirrors found but some sites could not be
checked: CN (China), CR (Costa Rica) and ID (Indonesia)
Legend:
OK: Appears to carry non-US
BAD: Appears not to carry non-US and may have trouble carrying main
if crypto included.
other: Technical difficulty browsing site.
