See, there are four problems with the program: 1. It is not good enough in doing its job. Which is funny, because picking right mirror is trivially done without any program. 2. It uses external tools for tasks that could be trivially implemented in C. 3. It doesn't filter out obviously bad choices, eg. users in Europe will test mirrors in North America. 4. It doesn't meet OpenBSD's standards for code in base. Problems #2, #3 and #4 can be fixed, but problem #1 makes this discussion completely pointless. Provided that all OpenBSD developers who cared to participate in this discussion pointed out this issue, I'd suggest to stop wasting time and bandwidth right here. Luke, if you disagree with my assessment, please publish your program on github and convince tech media to mention it. And move to next thing. Thank you in advance. -- Dmitrij D. Czarkoff
