I saw that JISC were pulling mirror.ac.uk the other day. That must make 
your staff feel rather annoyed, I'd imagine, given recent history :(

I've always experienced superlative service from you and yours: are you
still willing and able to continue to provide a Debian mirror longterm?

The reason I ask is because we may update the mirrors list when 4.0r1
happens: blueyonder also went off the 'Net now that they've been 
replaced by Virgin Media. I don't know whether they got 
forwarding/redirects to work properly.

Thanks for yours and your staffs help and service over the years - it's 
very much appreciated by this Debian user.
