Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm using Mageia Linux, the community fork of Mandriva Linux, and since there<br>
isn't an Israeli mirror, I've been getting crappy bandwidth from its<br>
international mirrors[1], which has been disrupting my work as a Mageia Linux<br>
packager and user. I believe there are other users of Mageia Linux in Israel.<br>
<br>
Please set up a local mirror on <a href="http://mirror.isoc.org.il" target="_blank">mirror.isoc.org.il</a>:<br>

[1] - When I talked about it with a support persons of my ISP, they said it's a<br>
known and deliberate issue and that I should pay extra for the "Gamer's Package"<br>
to get priority for international traffic.<br>
