I for one have switched to www.mirrorservice.org's mirror, which seems to be 
working OK at this point.

My complaint isn't as much with the repository as it's with yum itself for 
blowing chunks and completely failing. 

FWIW, when I update with synaptic I get a warning about the one repo being 
down but I get an update from the others just fine and can go ahead and 
upgrade from the loaded repos and wait until the ailing repo has things 
fixed.  I wonder if yum can be configured to do similar; I for one track 
kde-redhat, the various centos.org mirrored repos as well as apt.sw.be; there 
have been times that either the kde-redhat main repo or apt.sw.be have been 
down for several hours, during which a yum-driven autoupdate dies, but an apt 
one can cope.

More than likely yum can be taught to do such, I just haven't yet done it.
