what we had considered was using the fastest mirror plugin to sort the
list of mirrors. Then store that sorted list in the repo cache
directory. Then redownload the list and re-sort/store it every 8 hours
or so, same as how we're storing the repomd.xml data, now.
So is something like that going to happen, or do I need to give an extra
(RFE) nudge? :-)
Thanks, Willem Riede.
