Thanks for reporting this. It has now been fixed - it was a problem with
the mirror checking script being fooled by a temporary file that
couldn't be removed because it was owned by the wrong user. Db is
updating now, all mirrors should be back in 10 minutes or so.

(Man, it's convenient with wireless internet on the airplane
