> The http server is configured as requested, and we have subscribed to the mirror maintainers list.
> Some additional information on the mirror server:
> mirror.ac.za is currently to our knowledge the largest and fastest of the mirror servers on the African continent, and consists of several servers situated in 2 different locations in South Africa, with anycast dns distribution to do geographic redirection within the country.  International visitors to the mirrors are load balanced between the Cape Town and Johannesburg servers.  We currently host the official South African mirrors for both Ubuntu Linux and FreeBSD, as well as hosting various other mirrors as seen on http://www.mirror.ac.za. 
> Hopefully this server is of use to you!
