I'm rewriting the package script for Gentoo and I stumbled over that old "mirror restriction" forcing downloads from the Amazon server rather than from Gentoo mirrors. It's not an issue at all, it would only saves 2 lines of code. :) So if you (Walter) still want to keep track of the download statistic just say so. There is also that Russian FTP mirror now so it looks like it is already hard to keep track. -- Marco

It would allow to keep statistics and use different mirrors. For example that russian mirror is quite fast compared to DM ftp. What I propose is: http://dlang.org/download/dmd.2.064.2/?mirror=russian.ftp It increments download counter and redirects to mirror.I'm rewriting the package script for Gentoo and I stumbled over that old "mirror restriction" forcing downloads from the Amazon server rather than from Gentoo mirrors.
