If you want me to open the ticket with cPanel, send me the contact info
or copy me on an "introduction" email for a hand off to me.
On a related note, I enhanced the mirror check script yesterday to
individually test each mirror when there are multiple DNS A records for
a mirror's hostname. For example, I have 2 A records behind
http://sa-update.ena.com but the mirror check script has only been
checking one of them until yesterday. With the potential addition of
cPanel's many mirrors, this new logic is not just nice but necessary.

cPanel's offer is likely contingent on my consulting work with them but
I'll keep it in mind that you would like to spearhead which makes sense.
I disabled my older check script now that yours is in place on sa
infrastructure.
