Israeli Mageia Linux Mirror

[Lior Kaplan]

I'm not sure why are you CCing the linux-il list for a mirror request, but
I'll use it to remind you of the "rules" for such requests - you need to
show demand for a new mirror.

Please find (here, whatsup, or any other public option) people who would
also request or need such a mirror. There are too many distributions to
mirror, and they keep forking (:
