I am looking for a new upstream source from which to mirror CentOS via rsync. My mirror is publically accessible via HTTP and FTP at mirror.its.uidaho.edu. I need an upstream that is on a non-commercial route; currently us-msync-dvd.centos.org *is* a non-commercial route, but I'm wondering if this will always be the case. More specifically I'm assuming that us-msync-dvd.centos.org is a round robin and that are multiple hosts behind this name. Ideally I would like to pick one specific host, for which the routing is known, stable and non-commercial. Should I be looking for something from centos.org, or possibly another Internet2 institution here in the US Northwest?
Thanks all,
Dave
Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am mirroring everything, including DVDs.

mirror.chpc.utah.edu has all CentOS versions and the DVDs. It is open to anyone. It is connected to both Internet2 and NLR (National Lambda Rail).

mirrors.rit.edu hosts the same and is on I2.
Being on I2 I can poke a hole in the bandwidth limiter for you too (I have yet to figure out the BGP magic to make that automatic)

Paul and David, thank you for your offers. I have selected to pull from the fine folks at the Energy Sciences Network in Northern California. (Interesting, I'm almost making it sound like ESN won a contest or something.) ;-)
