The problem is simple.
1. LOTS of changes last week to development 2. 5KB/s download rates from the mirror master to mirrors 3. everyone in the world wanting everything updated at any given second.
It's just not possible to count on that much data synced world-wide if any one of the mirrors can't get any rates.
oh and 'duke seems to have died' is b/c a world of people repointed their rsyncs to us when their download rates off of the red hat master dropped to modem speeds.
The theory was that I was somehow magically able to get the bits. The theory is wrong but...

Isn't the solution also simple?
Give the mirror sites a priority access somehow, or perhaps a private master server?
