Hi all:
I've never had a good connection to the msync.centos.org (in fact, I haven't been able to get a connection established at all over the last 48 hours), so I've just always sync'ed to a tier 2 mirror (usually osuosl). However, osuosl doesn't carry the DVD isos. So, I occasionally run a manual sync against rsync://mirror.chpc.utah.edu to pick up the DVDs. I've noticed that the last few times I've done that, I also pull in a bunch of packages from 3.9. Then, next sync against osuosl deletes them.
Are the 3.9 packages still supposed to be in the tree, or does the utah mirror have old content?

Just to provide as a tip, to carry the DVD ISOs, which "msync" does not carry, we used to run our rsync in two steps as follows:
Step 1: rsync -vaH --filter='protect *DVD*' --filter='protect *torrent' --delete --delete-after --delay-updates --progress msync.centos.org::CentOS /data/web/centos
Step 2: rsync -vaH --filter='include */' --filter='include *DVD*iso' --filter='include *torrent' --filter='exclude *' --delete --delete-after --delay-updates --progress mirrors.kernel.org::centos /data/web/centos
We put all that into a script now, so that rsync retries if msync does not respond. But, the above works for us.
Regards HASSAN

Yes. 3.x is supported until October this year.
