This IP (as well as gobo.kundor.org) seem to be down right now.

Ok, just tried reconfiguring it so that iso.gobolinux.org points to
gobo.kundor.org through CNAME. Hopefully that will work.

I thought about it, but gobo.kundor.org runs the rsync service the
other mirrors rely on, so I hope that once gobo.kundor.org is up, the
new CNAME record will point iso.gobolinux.org to it correctly and
mirrors will be able to rsync to it and get the latest ISO.

Thanks for the heads up, and sorry about the mess (I should have
gotten the ISO uploaded to all mirrors prior to announcing it, etc.,
but I didn't want to delay it even more -- I think we can handle the
initial load in the servers we've got up, with holidays and all).
