ollyibeardslee: does catalyst still have a public debian mirror?22:24
ollyhttp://catalyst.net.nz/services says "Catalyst maintains local mirrors of these distributions.", but doesn't seem to say where to find them22:25
ollyhttp://wiki.wlug.org.nz/NewZealandLinuxMirrors suggests it was at http://www.nz.kernel.org/pub/debian/ but that doesn't work now22:26
ibeardsleeolly not sure they are overly public22:27
ibeardsleedebian.catalyst.net.nz ?22:27
ollyhmm, so the chances of them getting registered for http.debian.net are quite low then I guess...22:28
ollyit's kind of sad that its best option is in .au currently22:28
ajmitchibeardslee: at least it's not 6 months behind like some mirrors have been at times22:28
ollyftp.nz.debian.org uses antiquated mirroring scripts, so http.d.n doesn't use it22:29
* ajmitch mirrors from http.us.debian.org nightly with debmirror at home22:29
ajmitcheasier to do that than to wait around when I do want to install something22:30
ollynot sure my always on machine has the space22:32
ollyand that doesn't help when I'm not at home22:32
ollyhttp.debian.net is nice because it picks a fairly local mirror that is up to date and likely to actually work, and will update its choice automatically if I'm overseas22:33
ajmitchno it doesn't,  I'm just saying I had to fall back to http.us.d.o because of a lack of reliable debian mirrors in NZ :)22:34
ollyi should probably focus on trying to get ftp.nz.debian.org in a state where it can be used22:34
ollyISTR finding it hard to work out who to contact when I looked before22:34
