I am very happy with that, especially because as Joey wrote you do not need to tweak anything while traveling. > Please give back your feeling/idea to Yasuhiro Araki <ar@debian.org> , he really > wants *your* voice (to keep "motivation", "communication" is important, right? :-) I cannot do anything more than thanking Araki-san for this service, which I hope will become official ASAP. BTW, since we are at it, I am now in Boston (71.232.13.26) and I think cdn.debian.net does not pick up the nearest mirror, which I guess is the MIT one (traceroute hops and mirror FQDN in parenthesis): ===== luca@gismo:~$ host cdn.debian.net cdn.debian.net is an alias for deb.cdn.araki.net. deb.cdn.araki.net has address 149.20.20.135 (12 mirrors1.kernel.org) deb.cdn.araki.net has address 149.20.20.135 deb.cdn.araki.net has address 64.50.236.52 (more than 30, last one is 13 chcgildtcor53-giten9-1.network.tds.net) deb.cdn.araki.net has address 64.50.236.52 deb.cdn.araki.net has address 128.59.59.71 (14 teewurst.cc.columbia.edu) deb.cdn.araki.net has address 128.59.59.71 deb.cdn.araki.net has address 128.226.116.176 (more than 30, last one is 9 66.162.73.26) deb.cdn.araki.net has address 128.226.116.176 luca@gismo:~$ ===== FWIW, `traceroute debian.lcs.mit.edu` (rocky-mountain.csail.mit.edu, 128.30.2.36) gives me only 8 hops. Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
