Hi, thank you for the notification and thank you for operating that 
mirror until now. Fabian will remove the mirror from the list once he 
gets around to doing it (these tend to be done in batches).

If you want to speed up the process somewhat and to provide a "grace 
time" for clients using your mirror, you can adjust your rsync script to 
remove the TIME and timestamp.txt files from the root of the mirror 
after syncing. This will cause the mirror monitoring script to mark your 
mirror as old, without affecting the CentOS installations still using 
your mirror. CentOS may cache the retrieved list of mirrors for a while, 
perhaps for around a week or so.
