My complaint isn't as much with the repository as it's with yum itself for blowing chunks and completely failing.
You may have better luck discussing this on the yum-devel list. I know Seth reads this list, but not everyone working on yum does and I also know that Seth has been busy recently and may not ready every single post to CentOS.
In fact, there is a discussion on this topic already:

Seth has responded with some reasons why simply noting that a repo is down and moving on isn't a good idea. I'm not familiar enough to say whether or not his reasoning makes sense, but I generally do respect his opinion.
