This is mainly a question for Matt.

Currently it seems there is a problem with newly added private mirrors
that they never seem to appear in the mirrorlist. I am tracking this for
the last few weeks, but I have not found the cause for this yet. As this
problem does not yet seem very widely spread I did not spent too much
time on it. Recently dl.phx2.fedoraproject.org has been added as a
private mirror and it does not appear in the mirrorlist.

I have now seen that a few URLs have the private flag set in
host_category_url and I am wondering what it exactly means. I see that
these URLs are not added to the mirrorlist servers as opposed to mirror
sites/hosts which have the private flag set. I also do not see in MM2
where this flag can actually be changed and that's why I am wondering if
we somehow set this flag by accident in certain situations and that
maybe it had some different meaning in MM1.

That's why I am hoping that maybe Matt remembers the idea behind this
flag which enables marking URls as private. In MM2 it seems to be
unused, besides that once it is enabled it cannot be disabled and
URLs using it are therefore for ever blocked from the mirrorlist server.
