Thanks for supporting Fedora.
I had a look at your MirrorManager entry and it looks correct. You
should already see clients being re-directed to your mirror.
I see that the rsync URL you provide does not work:
$ rsync rsync://mirror.freethought-internet.co.uk/epel/
@ERROR: Unknown module 'epel'
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1648)
[Receiver=3.1.2]
If that could be fixed our crawler could use rsync to crawl your mirror
which would helps us a lot. Thanks.

Apologies, we had a small config error our side, that has been fixed and should now be
working properly rsync also. We need to add more disk space to our mirror and then we will
add the rest of the Fedora mirrors to it also, for the time being we’re just mirroring
things we use internally really but slowly building up to other things.
Let me know if you find anything else that needs tweaking.
