Package: debian-cd
Severity: minor
URL: http://debian.org/CD/mirroring/rsync-mirrors
While pulling an rsync of the CD images from this GB mirror, the banner
indicates:
"Welcome to the University of Kent's UK Mirror Service
<snip>
Please use rsync.mirrorservice.org for rsync access rather than
ftp.mirrorservice.org."
However, the DNS records for both addresses are currently identical, so this
should just be a change to protect us in future.

I've splitted the mirrorservice.org entry in the list of Debian mirrors
in 3 entries, one for each protocol: www. for http frontend, and ftp and
rsync.
Thanks and best regards.
