what is the logic the centos project resolves mirrors to requesting clients? by shortest AS path or what appears to be the closest geolocation?
geolocation by default.
what is the logic yum fails over to the next mirror? (does it also fail over upon receiving HTTP status code 403?)
any error, afaik.
is there any advantage for yum to have ftp access or is http access enough?
yum can use either ftp/http, so http is enough.
to join in on the distribution of the DVD iso files, which masterserver or community on the eu-msync should be used
That a long standing issue we need to fix... (too few centos.org machines with large bandwith/disks). You could get faster dvds/centos files from Tier1 rsync mirror.
