  In the meantime people interested in using rsync can use the 
mirror on rsync://rpmfind.net/linux/redhat-labs/gnome/ to build new
mirrors.

   rsync -az --delete rufus.w3.org::linux/redhat-labs/gnome localmirrordir

  should do the trick. No more than twice a day per mirror, please ...
MIT bandwidth is generous, but the server is "only" a K6 :-)
