The question is: should it try all of them - and given that the new retrygrab mechanism will, by default, do up to 3 retries before declaring a failure should I then go on to continue to retry each baseurl as well? there is getting to be lots of possibly unnecessary redundancy to cope with people with broken servers/network connections. -sv
