Ingenius! 8) That's a great idea, I'm working on implementing that
here at my site now, thanks. Now we only need some sort of "add your
repository to the list" automated web thingy now. And maybe even a
"access yummir via web" chunk that lets you look at the current list of
repositories and/or their current state(s).

I've been working on a program to manage the lists of repositories, and
the associated mirror servers in /etc/yum.conf. I call it yummir. It
polls a server for information on repositories and their mirrors, and
then uses that information to place into /etc/yum.conf.
For example, to update yum.conf with the latest set of mirrors:
yummir update
Or, to add the macromedia flash repository do:
yummir add macromedia
Currently, I'm only publishing repository information for Fedora. I'm
managing the list manually, and will shortly be working on tools that
automatically find out if a mirror is up to date and publishes new lists
based on that. Only a Fedora ix86 repository list is available, but it
should be easy to publish more information.
Please check it out and let me know what you think.
