[PATCH] fix/enhancements to mirror locator script
I'd like to submit the following changes to the mirror locator,
apache-site/dyn/closer.cgi . The result
o fixes one problem (newlines being embedded in HREF values if
there's no contact listed)
o cleans up the HTML a little
o adds the ability to include a free-form comment/location
For that last: If you change the C2 entry from
http us https://www.c2.net/apache/ webmaster@c2.net
to
http us https://www.c2.net/apache/ webmaster@c2.net Somewhere-in-NA
(hard TABs changed to " " for clarity, and spaces in the last field
to "-"), the closer.cgi script would change its display from
https://www.c2.net/apache/
to
https://www.c2.net/apache/ (Somewhere in NA)
This would allow us to list a geographical location which might (!)
be more meaningful than the domain name. If there's no value in the
fifth field, the display looks as it does now.

Well, nuts. I can't include the patch because I can't get a
#$&^*&@^# cvs diff due to the packet-drops. I guess I'll send it
later. Anybody want to vote on the theory? ;->
