I maintain the RPM that is used as part of CentOS Extras and that we use on the CentOS servers in question. I did some major work on the app that CentOS uses for mirrorlists and isolists over the weekend. Especially in the AP region, as we have picked up some mirrors there recently. Here is a thread that shows the relationship logic of the app: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2009-August/081033.html If people who think the lists need to change will tell me the good and bad servers for their country, I can change the logic.
