Hi folks, I just want to alert our mirror owners to a few small changes in our mirror system:
Henk Penning's mirror monitor script is now running on apache.org and generating our canonical mirror listing at http://www.apache.org/mirrors/ You can use this page to check the status of your mirror. Mirrors that are not up-to-date (refreshed within the last 48 hours) will no longer be suggested to downloaders as preferred mirrors. One more note: A while ago, we changed the suggested rsync target from "apache-site" to "apache-dist". Many of our old mirrors, however, still sync on "apache-site". If you are one of those, you may wish to take this opportunity to switch to "apache-dist". This repository is slightly smaller, changes much less frequently, and contains all the files necessary to distribute our software. If you do make this change, please alert us so that we can assure that we point our mirror scripts at the correct URL. Thanks. Joshua.
