[CentOS-mirror] Inclusion in YUM fastestmirror plugin

[Bangladeshi CentOS Mirror Maintainer [BD-SERVERS.NET]]

Hello Mr. Durga Prasad

You have already known the issue by Mr. Hassan.


Here is some link, you my find useful:

http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-mirror/2010-October/004038.html

Actually it is from the list archive of October, 2010, see the URL:

http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-mirror/2010-October/

It will give you pain, but reading is the best solution or learning
and implementation.

In October, 2010, we decided to change the mirror selecting method and
now we, the CentOS Master Mirror Maintainer along with other personal
is looking for an way to improve the system that how the mirror is
chosen, either by yum, or any browser.

The target is to give people access to the mirrors which is low cost
for user / ISP, speedy to user.

Keep an eye on CentOS mailing list for farther discussion on it. Also
you can see the CentOS wiki for more information and the transcript of
meeting on 28th December on it.

As I said before on my mail earlier to you that I am reserving lot of
request from India but my Host Machines are in Bangladesh. Even I try
to yup update something from the box hosting the mirror of CentOS, it
will pickup an .au mirror.

Mean the current system is buggy and we are trying hard to find out an
way to fix it.

By the way, can you see traffic on your mirror?
