I tried again today and many of the malfunctioning servers were removed from the list. But two servers that used to work fine when I opened this ticket are now timing out (may be a temporary problem with kamibing.vslm.org and mirror.in.th). But what this tells me is that Ubuntu should implement a simple mechanism to regularly check if mirrors are still alive. The different mirror lists should be synchronized. And since packages.ubuntu.com comes up time and again as ill-maintained the admin situation for that server should be carefully considered.
