As far as your script goes, we'll be considered "bad" because our ftp server is very often full. I let the Redhat/Mandrake users fight for those ftp slots but provide Debian users with access to the mirror via http. However, since we'll be considered "bad" might not be listed on the mirrors page. Just my $0.02, Scott :-)
