Isn't it strange that in the very long list of mirrors there are none in
Israel??? BTW, can't maintainers of ftp mirrors of Israeli universities come to
an agreement about sharing the mirroring job? For example, every university has
a local copy of slackware, which is meaningless since it doesn't matter whether
one downloads it from his local campus server at 1Mb/s or from another one at
150Kb/s - but none mirrors Incoming on sunsite, for example. In fact, I belive
there are no civilized countries but Israel left which don't have a single
complete mirror of sunsite on an academic ftp server.
