Description Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

the idea is to use round robin to get every time an other thirdparty mirror.

when mirror://sourceforge is in SRC_URI, every time emerge try's to connect to 
unc. if unc is down, it tries the next one

it could be very useful to do such load-balancing
