TL;DR: All source mirrors need to confirm/update the distfile fetch URL |
| 2 |
for mirroring, to rsync://masterdistfiles.gentoo.org/gentoo/ |

Hi, |
| 5 |
|

Recently the USSG group at Indiana University discontinued their rsync |
| 7 |
mirror, they have provided service for many years, but had to |
| 8 |
discontinue it. Their mirror was specifically the initial mirror covered |
| 9 |
in the Source mirror documentation, and then as mirrors joined, you were |
| 10 |
provided with the private URL & credentials. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The Gentoo mirrorstats page shows that multiple mirrors stopped updating |
| 13 |
around the same time (2020/01/22). I count 7 distinct mirrors right now, |
| 14 |
and I'll be further following up with them. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
OSUOSL has adjusted configuration on their mirror to no longer require |
| 17 |
authentication, and the documentation has been updated to reflect that, |
| 18 |
however now we need all mirrors to ensure their configuration is |
| 19 |
updated. |

| 24 |
The updated rsync fetch URL for all source mirrors is |
| 25 |
rsync://masterdistfiles.gentoo.org/gentoo/ |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
P.S. As a further reminder, could all mirrors please ensure that they |
| 28 |
have HTTPS enabled and serving correctly for their URLs. |
