Hi, I am the mirror administrator of cn.archive.ubuntu.com from Shanghai Linux User Group.
Below is the email conversation between us and it can be a bit follow-up on wenzhuo's post. Regarding the upstream mirror source, we found planetmirror which is located in Australia is a quite a good source to rsync from and we've switched the debian mirror source (on the same server) to it. Our server located in Shanghai (data center of China Telecom) can go up to 5MByte/s during non-rush hours. Jim =============================== The cron daemon on the mirror server had a problem some time few days back and we were not aware of that until around Oct 6. The crond issue caused mirror sync suspended during that period. We've had crond back online immediately. The issue about freshness status on the Launchpad.net has been there for a while since when we registered on Launchpad. So seems just a coincidence. I've sent an email to ubuntu mirror admin asking about it. Thanks a lot for your help and info.
