merlin.fit.vutbr.cz would like to participate, with that we added rsync
target so new info is:

Full mirror - all versions and archs

http http://merlin.fit.vutbr.cz/mirrors/centos/
rsync rsync://merlin.fit.vutbr.cz/CentOS /CentOS-incdvd
      merlin.fit.vutbr.cz::CentOS ::CentOS-incdvd
Sync: hourly
Location: Brno, Czech Republic, EU
Sponsor: Brno University of Technology, http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/
Contact: linux at fit.vutbr.cz
Speed: Server 1GbE, backbone 10GbE to Geant2

I differentiate the targest for rsync just by adding 
exclude=*-DVD.iso so the part of config looks like
  
  [CentOS]
  comment="CentOS without DVDs"
  path=..../mirrors/centos
  exclude=*-DVD.iso

  [CentOS-incdvd]
  comment="CentOS with DVDs"
  path=..../mirrors/centos

is this ok?
