Wow! After a very long period this mirror is back.
That's life: in the haystack of adresses you must find the needle ;-)

Got an answer: They have server problems and working on to get the service back.
I'll be informed if this is finished.

Sent another mail today.
Maybe we should make a deadline ~ May 05 to kick it if the answer has not time plan?
There are enough other mirrors currently in USA.

+1 on booting them, they've had issues all through 2007 too.

Ok, it have no news about this mirror.
So i would say: let's remove it as an official arch mirror.

Opinions guys? I can't seem to find the original contact information for the mirror admin either.
Comment by Gerhard Brauer (GerBra) - Tuesday, 13 May 2008, 13:16 GMT
I have 3 adresses:
walton at suu DoT edu
whitaker at suu DoT edu
Mails to these got the mirror back after the first fault.

Second downtime(reopened bug) i mailed these again and got following answer:
"Gerhard,

This is Chris McGahan. I am the president of the Computer Club on Southern
Utah University campus. This is the club responsible for the server you've
been inquiring about. We recently have had some problems with the server
and are working to get it back up and running. I'll let you know as soon as
it's online. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Thank you,

Chris McGahan"

Can someone poke at Chris for an update please?
Comment by Gerhard Brauer (GerBra) - Tuesday, 13 May 2008, 20:44 GMT
I could sent him a mail soon.
Maybe it's good if he got some from other too.
Comment by Gerhard Brauer (GerBra) - Friday, 16 May 2008, 12:50 GMT
I got a response from Chris:
"I apologize for the delay. We've had to setup a new server and ran into some problems. The server, however, should be back up within a week."

So let's wait one or two weeks. There is hope ;-)

Hail the admins!

Ok, mirror is synced now.
Let's close this report ;-) and hope that there is no reason for reopening it anytime again....
