[fab] Master Mirror List Control

At present the master mirrors list is on a Red Hat server.  I'm not
sure who maintains it:

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

Should we move this to a Fedora server?  With FC6 coming out all
installs will default to pointing to mirrors.fedoraproject.org.  That
box basically takes its list from the fedora.redhat.com list and
checks the mirrors for freshness / availability.

Another issue that has come up is, for example, the request for an
extras-devel-source repo.  Its in rawhide, but extras-devel-source
does not exist in the master list.

Thoughts?
