Hi,
 Over the last couple of weeks we've put together a mirror checking tool
and a cgi that will verify the currency of the mirrorlist. Then it will
generate lists per-country based on geoip country codes as well as a
global mirror list.

The code for this tool is available here:

http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/check-mirrors/?root=fedora


We've also setup a url for the cgi for use from the yum repository
definitions.

I'd like to see this added to the fedora-release package (where
the .repo files are stored) for FC6 Test 2, if possible.

[development]
name=Fedora Core - Development
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide&arch=$basearch


and for extras:

[extras-development]
name=Fedora Extras - Development Tree
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=extras-devel&arch=$basearch



Thanks,
-sv
