And rhlx01 is trying hard to be down, too... :-\
The famous "... stuck on IPI wait" error message and other weird things
(dual P3/500, ya know)
Its uptime isn't exactly fabulous (sometimes due to HW/SW upgrades).
After all it's a quite big server with many services running there.
But so far its uptime/downtime ratio isn't really horrible.
It's just that it had several short downs during the last weeks.

Well, maybe one *might* want to change something.
CVS isn't really important IMHO, as with three servers it's quite safe.
(developers ought to know all of them anyway)
What's much more important is the WineHQ homepage.
And this is where lack of accessibility is a problem.
Maybe we ought to install local mirrors of WineHQ and announce these
mirrors directly on the main page...
I.e.: www.de.winehq.com (rhlx01 ??), www.dk.winehq.com (tiepmiep ?) and others.
And maybe then just do the same with CVS (cvs.dk.winehq.com ...)
And of course link to winehq.com for countries where no mirror exists.
Or maybe use a different mirror for this, as the winehq.com server
will be accessed directly many times anyway... (better load sharing)
This would allow for a rather consistent (i.e.: non-problematic
for the end user) setup.
