Hi all,

As announced I switched the DNS for downloads.openwrt.org 
<http://downloads.openwrt.org/> to use fastly instead of our primary 
distribution server (mirror-02).

From what I can tell the migration worked rather swift and I’m seeing quite 
some traffic using the CDN. Cached content is delivered at line speed on my 
end, hope people around the world make the same experience.

There might be minor hiccups with the mirrors[1] until they switch to 
rsync.openwrt.org <http://rsync.openwrt.org/> but since no release is in sight 
I didn’t count that as a stopper.

Next will be a new “origin” server which replaces both mirror-01 (old) and 
mirror-02 (costly). If anyone is aware of a good bare metal host (or managed 
rsync host) which is open source friendly and ideally does sponsoring, please 
reach out to me directly (i.e. not on the list). Without the CDN the server 
should be able to serve 1PB/a, so ideally nothing that is limited to 1-2 TB per 
month. Thanks for ideas!

Please enjoy the new download speeds including HTTP/3.

Sunshine,
Paul
