I found some methods that use url rewriting but it's rather ugly...

One[1] suggested this:

\/fedora\/linux\/releases\/([0-9]+)\/Everything/x86_64\/(.*)$
http://repo.mirrors.squid.internal/fedora/releases/$1/$2
\/fedora\/linux\/updates\/([0-9]+)\/x86_64\/(.*)$
http://repo.mirrors.squid.internal/fedora/updates/$1/$2

There's got to be a proper and generic way of doing this. Keeping up with a
list of mirrors isn't sustainable.

I'd be willing to create a new project to try and come up with a package
that would automagically get this working but I'd need a lot of help...

Thanks,
Richard
