Hi, In the past my mirrorlist for SCL, http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=SCL has worked without any issues. Recently http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=SCL redirects to http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/scl/x86_64/ which leads to 404, instead it should be http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/SCL/x86_64/ Is this a change or bug. Thanks,

Hi, We're using CentOS on various servers in Japan. Recently, I found that mirrorlist.centos.org returns servers in China. It makes "yum update" slow. This problem occurs on "update" repo.

Hi Guys Apologies in advance for the noise. I am interested in setting up my OWN mirrorlist like http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=stock where it pulls a few local mirrors, but mine would be statically set with 3 or 4 different location URL's Basically my plan here is, if the closest mirror I operate cannot be reached, it will try another
