#1. Leaking a release builds enthusiasm among hobbyists (as Fedora
community should be).
#2. It helps create publicity.
Just a suggestion. Tnx.
I will give my method for finding it early, but I will leave the
implementation details for your personal discovery.
First, the puzzle pieces.
The mirror lists can be downloaded to a file.
You have two sources for the mirror lists already:
1. /etc/yum.repos.d/*
2. Fedora.org repo list
The list has an important piece of the puzzle: The country codes.
wget a mirror list and look at the first line, it gives a clue that you
can include the country code in the query.
Create a text file containing all mirrors in all country codes.
Edit the list to append the correct iso name.
foreach url in list
wget $url
When one hits, immediately interrupt it and do it from the command line.
Easy peasy.
There are ALWAYS a couple of mirrors that don't get permissions set up
correctly on the first pass.
Good luck!
