[19:26] <jeremydei> does anyone know how many days behind the main archive, the canonical ec2 mirrors are?
[19:27] <elmo> they shouldn't be more than hours behind
[19:28] <jeremydei> hours? wow!
[19:29] <elmo> they sync every 4-6 hours, I forget which
[19:30] <jeremydei> elmo, do you know where I can find a list of the mirrors' dns? (assuming there's one in each zone..)
[19:32] <elmo> jeremydei: eu.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com  and us.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com
[19:35] <jeremydei> elmo, yep I see this for the lookup us.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com. 600	IN	CNAME	ec2-174-129-225-54.compute-1.amazonaws.com
[19:35] <jeremydei> does that mean there's only 1 in the US region?
[19:35] <elmo> jeremydei: at the moment yes
[19:36] <elmo> jeremydei: we're looking at expanding that, but the cost of traffic between regions is pretty minimal
[19:36] <elmo> between regions in the same availability zone, I mean
[19:37] <jeremydei> cool, thanks for the info! (esp the hours behind).  I'm looking at using this mirror as a primary upstream for the RightScale mirrors
[20:07] <smoser> the ec2 mirrors are lightning fast too
[20:08] <smoser> at least they have been, till everyone finds out about them :)
