I'd like to ask a question which is somewhat specific to us, but might
also be relevant to others:

We have a fast link inside Israel, but slow outside, including Asia
(to which we belong). I now looked a bit at mirrorbrain's docs (which
seems very cool, BTW), and it seems that it should be possible for
mirror admins to control/tune such things, but I could not find out
how. Is it? If so, how? If not - can the master be configured to e.g.
point all Israeli users to us (at least until other Israeli mirrors
appear) but point outside (doesn't really matter if from Asia, our links
are actually to Europe IIRC) users to us only with a low probability, or
something like that?

Thanks,
