The whole point of having this many mirrors is so that the horde-generated traffic will not bring down the servers. This won't be any worse than a new version day. In fact, it will affect the servers even less, because not everyone will know exactly when the updates will appear (not to mention a fairly large percentage of people who will err on the side of caution and not update for a few days/weeks until they hear all-clear reports from the early updaters) -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
