I don't know why but the mirror checker is screwed up. The last email I
got from the system said that the mirrors were in good shape but
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html tells another story.
Just a heads up. I'm investigating.

Problem identified and (I hope) fixed. It will take a few hours for
the system to correct itself so mirrors will be scarce until that
happens.

This list has recovered a bit but is still very sparse.
It is probably just a coincidence, but my usual mirror,
<ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/>, has disappeared, not just from
<http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html>, but when accessed directly with Firefox,
not setup. Usually it is very reliable. I doubt that there's anything
that you can do, but I wonder if anl.gov cannot find something that it is
looking for at the cygwin/sourceware end and that that has contributed to
this problem at anl.gov and at least some of the other mirrors.
Best wishes,
- Barry
