Hello,

  Allow me to introduce myself, I'm the Head of IT of Digital Shape

Technologies Inc.

  I'm writing to this mailing list as requested in your official mirror

doc found here:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Mirroring#Signing_up

  We're based in Montreal and we're looking forward to setup a dedicated

public mirror server.

  We'd be more than happy to share 750Mbps of our bandwidth.



  The mirror server should be ready within the next few weeks but we're

not yet sure about its final IP.

  I will follow-up once this information is available.



  In the meantime feel free to contact me if you have any feedback.

Please use a tier 1 mirror[1] close to you; create an account in the MirrorManager[2]; register your mirror in our MirrorManager; enter your local netblocks in the mirror manager; run report_mirror[3] (if possible) and as soon as you are listed in the database as up to date yum/dnf will be redirected to your mirror.

All this information can be found in more details in the wiki at:

Thanks for supporting Fedora. If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask.

It would help us a lot if you could provide rsync access for our crawler. Our crawler checks the content of your mirror and using rsync requires only one network connection in contrast to crawling via HTTP which can take up one connection per directory/file on your mirror.
