Description Michał Wernicki 2013-02-09 16:40:58 CET
A Tier1 mirror ftp://ftp.linuxcabal.org/pub/mirrors/Mageia/ stopped updating its contents. It happens.
But because this state persists for many (hard to tell how many but it looks that more than seven) days with this mirror and with the dependent ones I think the Mageia team could use some measures for such situations. I think an automatic tool checking mirrors whether they're up and current would be useful.
As for now awareness of supporters must suffice ;)
