Looks good to me ..
Since they don't mentions anything else apart from removing those lines
I guess I should be OK.
In any case since the Dutch mirrors no longer exist there's nothing else
I can do anyway.
My guess is that they were kept alive until some time earlier this year
for some backward compatibility reasons, perhaps, and that's why I was
not seeing those error message.
The only thing that does not fit in is that the first release of debian
I used was sarge .. shortly before it became stable .. so I'm not sure
why I had these non-us lines in my /etc/apt/sources.list in the first
place.
Ah, go figure..
Thanks!
