> At the moment, our MaxMind's geoiplookup stuff only maps IPv4 addresses
> to the proper country codes.
> This means that (for instance):
> -- downloaders using an IPv6 address are directed to mirrors in
> the default (.us) domain.
> -- mirrors using an IPv6 address, syncing from "rsync.apache.org" are all redirected to "aurora.apache.org"
> -- other probs ?
> The solutions is to upgrade our geoip stuff.
> It appears we have a free MaxMind license,
> but I can't find any details regarding this license.
