Just got a reply from a local would-be mirror telling me they
discarded Fedora from the local Linux mirror lists because of the
"export restrictions"
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal/Export
http://fedoraunity.org/export-restrictions
However, they carry Debian and CentOS, implying that the same
restrictions do not apply to those projects.
I think that is a silly excuse and that they´re full of s... as I
don´t see any fundamental differences between Fedora and CentOS...
Specially after reading
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2008-October/066853.html
Thoughts? Comments?

PS: they´re a goverment-owned telecomms firm
http://mirrors.dcarsat.com.ar/ so they might be more paranoid to
legalese and fear of Uncle Sam getting after them (or us as a country)
if they don´t police access restrictions to the mirror site as per the
wishes of the us govt.
