Bug#539417: "Select a server near you" still necessary?



Package: www.debian.org
Severity: minor

Hello,

According to various sources www.d.o now uses geoIP to automatically 
select a closer mirror. Does it make sense to keep the "Select a server 
near you" drop-box?

Even if it stays, it should at least show the chosen server, because now 
(at least for me) it always shows "United States" which makes me think 
the www.us.d.o mirror is used (I'm in Romania).

Regards,
Andrei
