curl 'http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?as_json=1' gives something like { "backup": [ "http://www-eu.apache.org/dist/";, "http://www-us.apache.org/dist/"; ], "cca2": "ru", "http": [ "http://apache-mirror.rbc.ru/pub/apache/"; ], "path_info": "", "preferred": "http://apache-mirror.rbc.ru/pub/apache/"; }
Then you grep for preferred somehow, then construct the proper URL. Does that work for you? Vladimir
