Alan's quite right.  I am hosting the MinGW RPMs temporarily on my own
site (something like 700-800 MBs worth):

http://www.annexia.org/tmp/mingw/fedora-10/

This is of course no substitute for proper, reliable Fedora hosting
and mirroring, which we'll get eventually once the packages are
reviewed.

But I spend under $30 / month on this server, and there is no
noticable load from the 565 people[1] synching their development
machines to it.

Rich.

[1] "people" = distinct IPs making > 1 request for repomd.xml, so
probably the real number of users is a bit less than this.

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.  Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into Xen guests.
