Hi,

hmm, didn't know a fedora-enchilada0 existed. Did we miss some
information on that? But nevermind, we changed our target now.

mirror.speedpartner.de (tier1, ipv4/ipv6, 1GBit, Germany) is synced up
now and ready to serve. If any tier2 is interested and not yet on our
whitelist, just let us know.


Kind regards,
