Let's not open the champagne until the mirror is formal and announced.
Just looked and they seem to have run out of space while populating
the mirror, apparently they did a rsync of F1* so they got from 10 to
15 :).

I have now emailed them with details about an exclude.txt and how to
exclude FCx to F15 and just mirror F16 and F17.

By the way, I think the normal site should put all obsoleted versions
under an /obsolete subdir...

Or conversely, put the actively supported releases under
/Fedora/current. Although I think the first approach is clearer.
That way no mirror would decide to mirror "obsolete" releases unless
they *really* intend to...

Whatd'ya think?.
