Of the 8 that work, none are physically close to my FL location. Closest looks like about 900-1000 miles away. The products list also omits any indication that Tumbleweed exists. It says corrections should goto admin@, but I'm sending here (first at least) because this is not exclusively an admin problem, but also a web presence and marketing problem. Maybe the page should be retired, but I hope not. When mirrorbrain points me to a slow download.opensuse.org mirror, I'd like to be able to repoint to something with decent throughput, hopefully because physically closer. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
