It appears that none of zsh.org's nameservers are reachable, thus www.zsh.org and ftp.zsh.org are unavailable. I have reported this to zefram at fysh.org, listed as the registrant of the zsh.org domain name.

Attempting to contact ftp.sterling.com, I get a network timeout. Perhaps that mirror should be removed from the list.

I can connect to ftp.fu-berlin.de but it only has versions 4.2.7 and 4.3.4. Maybe the zsh port should be updated.

ftp.iij.ad.jp does have 4.2.6 and 4.3.2, but the first time I tried to connect it rejected me because it had reached its maximum of 10 connected users. Maybe that happened to you too. Maybe if you try again it'll work.

The directory /vol/wojsyl/zsh/ does not seem to exist on ftp.icm.edu.pl so that mirror should be removed from the list too.

I'm Cc'ing the maintainer of zsh on this email so he can take care of these issues. In the future, please file a ticket in our issue tracker when you discover something that doesn't work, and assign it to the maintainer of the port in question.
