Here is some documentation regarding this: http://www.apache.org/dev/mirrors.html http://www.apache.org/dev/release-download-pages.html Here is config file that the installer app loads: http://people.apache.org/~bigosmallm/installapacheflex/ApacheFlexConfig.xml In this xml, the element: <file name="ApacheFlexSDK" path=" http://people.apache.org/~cframpton/ApacheFlexRC/release_candidate_3/binaries/"; file="apache-flex-sdk-4.8.0-incubating-bin.zip"/> needs to updated dynamically with the 'preferred mirror' url from the closer.cgi script. I hope this info is sufficient for you to start. You might want to jump on to infrastructure-...@apache.org (public list) if you need expert advice. Thanks for volunteering :-) Om
