Hello admins,
I'd like to become a new public EPEL mirror in Tehran, Iran (IR). I've pre-configured it for review, it is available over IPv4 and serves the following protocols:
ftp: ftp://ftp.umirror.ir/epel
http: http://www.umirror.ir/epel
https: https://www.umirror.ir/epel
rsync: rsync://rsync.umirror.ir/epel
Sync schedule: Every 8 hrs
Bandwidth: 10Gbps
Location: Tehran, Iran
IPv4 address to authorize: 5.239.244.35
Email contact: hamid(a)umirror.ir
Regards,
Hamid
U.S. export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations apply to the Fedora project (including EPEL). A public mirror of Fedora software in Iran is prohibited due to the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control's (OFAC) comprehensive trade embargo on Iran.
Would you be kind enough to provide details on how you determined that U.S. export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations apply to these projects?
Quick google search shows results that suggest publicly available software is excluded[1][2][3]
