Curious -- is everyone suddenly pointing to the same repository? I thought
the idea of yum was to allow distributed repositories and easy mirroring.
It seems that specific yum.conf files are being posted, all hitting one or
two mirrors, which are then inevitably swamped so up2date then fails for
everyone.

I've seen a YUM mirror guide but have not gotten it working yet. Maybe if
a similar document was posted we could help distribute at minimum the
update repository.
