What I was thinking (one of many possibilities) was along the lines of "include" directives similar to... e.g. xinetd or many other packages. Might want a slightly different name. Regardless, it would cause inclusion of a file of mirrors, maybe hand generated by the user, that would be tried before the list normally returned by the current mirroring functionality.
rtfm, this is presently possible. feel tree to mod you .repo to suit.
I give up. I try to read as much as fast as I can to fill in my admitted newness to this stuff. I know I can custom build repos lists, etc. I use fastest mirror plugin and I use your mirror list. If there is a way for me to use the *standard* issued stuff and just add a single line that says augment that with local stuff first and then use (or don't use the standard stuff) if that fails, I missed it.
As Lance pointed out, this is OT here anyway, so I was done.
As I pointed out, it was no concern to me.
