[CentOS-mirror] New CentOS mirror request

[Christopher Raven]

Hi Chris,

Yes, you are correct - we just didn't want to put a self-signed 
certificate in and cause issues that way, so the correctly signed 
certificate will be transferred over later today for its install. As 
https seems a supplemental / optional item together with rsync in the 
guide, we decided to update the list for http first, and rsync / https 
will then be updated in a little while.
