Fair call. This whole mirror thing is only half working I'm afraid. A 
lot of mirrors give me GPG errors when packages download, and I have to 
do the 'mirror chase' to find a working download.

I even tried changing my sources and added the .au (I'm in Australia) to 
the yum-mirrors section to try to get everything from Australia, but 
using that method, the mirror I get sent to give me a 404 on the header 
file.

I'm assuming this will be worked on for FC3, but I'm still disappointed 
by how little up2date has improved since introduction (even before 
Fedora I mean). I'm screwed either way. US mirrors are slow, lock or 
give me GPG errors and Australia mirrors don't work.

When I get a spare minute in my day, I'll have to chase the RPMs 
manually I think.
