Yes, you got hosed by something that appears to have been done to the Gentoo
rsync server and you are not alone.  They are remaining hush about what has
really happened.  They state on their webpage that the master rsync servers
are down, but they have not stated the problem that has developed (like you
have posted about), nor have the indicated a more systemic problem like the
non-function and now long lag of the email lists.

In other words, I am a little irritated with the lack of communication from
the Gentoo teams on this.  I am subscribed to the email lists and will look
here or on the website for any published issues, but you won't find me
digging through forums for something that should be up front and immediate.
