Hi All,

Just to inform you that ftp.archlinux.org is now being mirrored at

http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.archlinux.org/
ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.archlinux.org/

Heanet is a service of the Higher Education Authority of Ireland and
provides the backbone to Irish third level institutions with 2 X 2 Gb
links (bandwidth utilisation is typically less than 20% so plenty of
capacity for everyone).

Enjoy, John (jrbeire).

Nice one, John. More icing on my Arch Linux cake!

Question for devs - should we submit a feature request to get this mirror added to the /etc/pacman.d/ lists?

Yeah, it can do no harm and there is no guarantee that Judd will even see this thread - consider the bugtracker the equivalent of that post it note you have stuck on your fridge that says "Buy milk" - as long as it's there it'll keep reminding you :)


Incidentally, as suggested on HEAnet's front page, I mailed them to request an Arch mirror over a year ago. Obviously, it helps if you move in the right circles - right John? ;)
