I don't know whether it's down or not, but there is http://http.debian.net/ which should prevent users from being affected by mirrors, which are down and it should also select the nearest mirrors. Quoting it: ``` Advantages over a good old, specific mirror No offline mirrors No out of date mirrors New mirrors are used Load-balancing Faster downloads (when APT is used, via parallel downloads) Great on mobility ``` (Read "a good old, specific mirror" as "ftp.us.debian.org".) - -- Mika Suomalainen NOTICE! I am on mobile broadband with very limited time, so I cannot read emails very much. The best time to contact me is probably weekends when I have better connectivity with good luck. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Homepage: http://mkaysi.github.com/ Comment: gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 82A46728 Comment: Public key: http://mkaysi.github.com/PGP/key.txt Comment: Fingerprint = 24BC 1573 B8EE D666 D10A AA65 4DB5 3CFE 82A4 6728 Comment: Why do I (clear)sign emails? http://git.io/6FLzWg Comment: Please send plaintext instead of HTML. http://git.io/TAc0cg Comment: Please don't toppost. http://git.io/7-VB3g Comment: Please remove PGP lines in replies. http://git.io/nvHrDg Comment: Charset of this message should be UTF-8.
