High again,

I remember mirror servers being a topic multiple times recently,
but iirc, that was about system specific repositories.

Now I'm trying to download 14.0.2 to compile it myself, and I
have (been) navigated to 
  http://ftp.fau.de/trinity/releases/R14.0.2/downloads.html

In the second-last line it says:

  The high speed file mirror currently in use was selected
  at random. All mirror information is available on the main
  Trinity project page at https://www.trinitydesktop.org.

I don't find any mirror info there... not even the word "mirror".
I also searched the wiki, with an astonishing little number of
hits, one related to GIT ("check out the entire source tree from
mirror"), another to "Building KDE 3.5 with Konstruct", which
appears to be quite obsolete, despite it's more or less recent
timestamp from 2014-05-07, and the last one about "ULab
NIUInstallNotes", where I guess that it's not about the source
tarballs.

I also looked through other pages, without finding any hint
about mirrors, so my question: there seems to be a list of
mirrors maintained, but it doesn't seem to be visible to the
end users, only to scripts, on which the user has to rely?

I'm asking, because connections to the mirror at fau.de are not 
particularly stable from my home net. Using "wget -c", mileages
vary, but the per-session volume is below 200kB, which makes it
tiresome to download a 200MB archive.

Also, the mirror can't be choosen so randomly, since I _always_
end up at fau.de.

Any links? Thanks in advance,
Jagged

PS: anyone having the R14.0.2-core.tar on their box, could you
please run "tar tf" on it and send the output? --- thanks again.
