Thats something we should sort out soon. I noticed today that when you 
install a ipkg zone opensolaris grabs the packages from the pkg repository. 
We probably don't want pkg.opensolaris.org getting hammered everytime 
someone decides to create a zone!

Is anyone looking at ways to have official mirrors around the world? 
Ideally it would be cool if pkg install could check to see what the nearest 
mirror was and install from that.

Cheers,
