[ubuntu-za] Hardy Release Party

[Andrew Alston]

Hi Guys,

Quick favour to ask of the lists.

Can some of you guys email me traceroutes to za.archive.ubuntu.com and
za.releases.ubuntu.com, and in those emails clearly state where in the
country you are (Cape Town/Johannesburg/Eastern Cape etc).  I am trying to
make 100% sure that the anycast and load balancing of the release servers is
ready for the load generated by the release, and that the geographic
redirection to closest server is 100%.

Very basically, if you resolve to the South African server from
Johannesburg, you should be going to the Johannesburg Server, in Cape Town
you should go to the Cape Town server, this *SHOULD* be 100%, it's the rest
of the country that I'm not 100% sure where the breakout points are.

If you could also give me an indication of which ISPs you are using that
would be helpful

Thanks
