extra repositories

[Rakotomandimby (R12y) Mihamina]

HEllo, 
I'm looking for a list of "extras" mirrors.
I alredy have enough "base" ones in my yum.conf.

I need ocaml and python-imaging, that are both in extras.
I saw this could be one:
http://fedoraproject.org/extras/EXTRAS

but it indicates a main mirror (xxx.redhat.com) and i dont want to
overload the main mirrors.

would you know some others, or do i need to check one by one all the
available mirrors here
http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html#EU
to find onethat could suit me?

I'm located in France (centre area).

Thanks.
They are apt-only repositories.
I forgot to tell I only use yum.
But I had the idea to mirror this one:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras

How to know the mirrors of it?
Where to annouce I'm mirroring it?

The mirror I manage is a 622Mbps server at Orléans:
http://www.etud-orleans.fr/connectivite

It's blank yet.
But the content is coming...

Hm? Why do you think so?

You just want to be a public mirror of Fedora Extras or Fedora Core too?
Please see the bottom of

http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html

for contacting Red Hat when intending to become a mirror.

#1 If I edit my yum.conf file and I fill them with 
[extras]
name=Extra 
baseurl=ftp://ftp.univ-pau.fr/pub/mirrors/fedora-
extras/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/
        ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/extras/$releasever/$basearch/

Then yum cant find the repodata directory, and obviously all its
content.

#2 ftp://ftp.univ-pau.fr/pub/mirrors/fedora-
extras/fedora/fedora/3/i386/README

tells me:
"This repository is replicated only for the convenience of apt users.
yum/up2date users should use Red Hat's download.fedora.redhat.com mirrors."

Just the extras, because The Core has enough mirrors, according to the
mirror listing page :-)

Ok.

Yes. I see you know :-)

it's a mirror of download.fedora.us -- contact the mirror admin and
ask that download.fedora.redhat.com is mirrored instead -- how about
that?
