Re: Why announce a security update before the mirrors are synced

I suggesting using secsup.org as your mirror. I found they update more often and faster than alot of the other mirrors. And from the midwest (Kansas City), their speeds are quite nice.

I just received the announcement for the new kernel*2714 yet no mirrors

update.


Because the folks at Fedora/Red Hat have no way to control how often or
when the mirrors sync up?



Yes, I suppose that's true, but they can give the mirror admins. a heads up when something major is about to become available. As it is now, us mere mortals jam up the main site, complain that its slow, and keep the mirrors from syncing with our added traffic to the master. In the past, the new releases test and final are on the mirrors and all open at the same time. I'm sure something could be done, it would just take some effort in the coordination.
