Thanks for these.  I would prefer if the mirror owner would create an
entry for each in the MirrorManager database
(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mirrormanager - see
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Mirroring for more
details).  Until then, I'll add a placeholder entry.

MM can easily restrict mirror users to be from .id. Just add the
single entry 'id' to the restricted countries list for each mirror,
and then MM will not direct non-.id users to those mirrors.

Thanks,
Matt
