I agree it's the server side that will eventuelly push it through,
but don't expect miracles. I informed the sysadmins at the place 
where I work that ftp.kernel.org isn't reachable anymore for us, 
only to get a long reply full of reasons (some better than others) 
why they wouldn't act. The final statement was: "use one of the 
many ftp..kernel.org mirrors".

 I suspect that the main way to get this thing fixed is to make sure
 ECN is enabled on the server side; for example, we have turned on ECN
 on kernel.org.  If a user is using a broken software stack, it's their
 loss, not ours.

I agree it's the server side that will eventuelly push it through,
but don't expect miracles. I informed the sysadmins at the place 
where I work that ftp.kernel.org isn't reachable anymore for us, 
only to get a long reply full of reasons (some better than others) 
why they wouldn't act. The final statement was: use one of the 
many ftp.country.kernel.org mirrors.
