With beta3 uni-erlangen.de wasn't synced up within the first 24 hours, if
I remember correctly. By the way: download.opensuse.org isn't a static
redirect to gwdg.de, it basically is dynamic with some hooks to redirect
*i386*.iso to ftp.gwdg.de, to keep those isos in the buffer cache, which
seems to work out very well...
