Hello,
I've become increasingly interested in a simple updates mirroring
system to proxy/store updates for a number of fedora machines on our
network. I searched google and found the instant mirror project, but
it seemed somewhat dead. Is it still alive? Did some other solution
replace it?
Take a look at intelligent mirror. A GSoC project by Kulbir Saini.

Is there still no way to make yum default to behaving intelligently by
itself in the presence of a caching proxy? All it really needs to do is
use the same mirror as the last person chose so the URLs will match.
I think its not possible. Especially in shared environments. For
example in a university, machine A ran yum and downloaded foo.rpm via
bar.com. Now if machine B runs yum to download the same foo.rpm, how
will it know what mirror machine A used?
If you have a look at the latest developments of
intelligentmirror[1], you'll observe that this mirror switching problem
has been resolved but at the proxy level.
