I really like the idea of having a single URL and having the web server
    on pkgbox issue a redirect as appropriate. 

    We could even have pkgbox test the other mirrors periodically to
    determine whether they are up or not.

    I would even do it with a CGI so it could be made as smart as possible.
    So, e.g. we could build-in some load balancing which would allow us to
    have 'slow' mirrors in our rotation which we would only redirect a fixed
    percentage of the requests to.
