Great Britain push mirrors

[Ryan Finnie]

This announcement concerns mirror administrators who sync from
gb.archive.ubuntu.com and receive push triggers (list below).  It does
not affect other regions' mirrors who receive push triggers.

gb.archive.ubuntu.com was hosted in a London-based IX and was
responsible for sending push triggers for GB/UK-based mirrors.  It
developed some hardware problems in November and was taken out of
service, redirecting gb.archive.ubuntu.com to some of our London DC servers.

Unfortunately this push trigger setup was not noticed until now (thanks
to Shane Mc Cormack for pointing this out), and was not sending out push
triggers for archive.  We've moved the functionality to our main push
trigger servers, while retaining the GB-specific trigger keys for these
mirrors.

You should not need to do anything, unless you have IP-based ingress
filtering, in which case the initiation IPs have changed (91.189.92.172
for archive, and 91.189.92.173 for releases).  In addition, it's
recommended you verify you are performing mirror fetches every 4 hours,
in addition to upon push triggers.

If you have any questions, please email mirrors at ubuntu.com.
