Hi,

I would like to inform you that I have configured a full gentoo mirror as per http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/source_mirrors.xml and would like it to be tested and later added to the official mirror list.

It is located in Montreal, Canada and has a 1gbit connection.

http://mirror.clibre.uqam.ca/gentoo
Sponsored by: Comité logiciel libre de l'Université du Québec à Montréal

I have also subscribed to the gentoo-mirrors mailing list.

Thank you!

Hello. On behalf of the mirror-admin team, I want to apologize for not getting back to your bug report. At this time, we are closing ALL new mirror request bugs.

The Gentoo Linux Infrastructure team and the mirror-admin team have found that a plethora of community mirrors exist and adding more requires an exponential amount time from us then we have available. As such, this becomes a more poor user experience than desired because the team cannot keep up. The Gentoo Linux project is not contrained in hardware resources and does not need anymore mirrors (even if your request is for a country that is not represented currently).

Thanks for understanding and thank you for your interest.
With regards,
Jeremy
