[REQUEST] - Add Fedora Linux mirror #18

Open fourilent opened 10 months ago

fourilent commented 10 months ago

Hello, I use Fedora Linux as a daily driver and it would be nice if it's possible to get it mirrored on your mirror! The only other Fedora mirror I could find in Singapore was from SG.GS, but its not listed on Fedora's Mirror Manager (not able to pull from it without modifying the package manager's source repository) and I wasn't able to contact the mirror maintainers either. The "closest" mirrors that's on Mirror Manager are all relatively slow when used in Singapore. It would be really awesome if you could get it mirrored on your mirror and listed officially. Fedora offers a guide to mirroring and getting listed on Mirror Manager, rsync is well documented on the guide too. If you were wondering how much a Singaporean Fedora mirror would get used, Singapore's mirror usage is ranked among top 15 with >80k requests in Mirror Manager's statistics.

That's interesting. When I last looked at mirrors fedora appeared to have more mirrors available in sg.

I will look, but no guarantees. Bigger distros tend to ignore mirror maintainers - I spent half a week doing an initial sync of linux mint only for them to ignore me

Thank you so much! I hope that won't be the case, seeing the limited availability in Singapore.
