If you're talking about the concept of letting the user pick which country/net he is in and then get a set of local mirrors prepended, I disagree. That's a good concept - it makes it easy for a user to get a reasonable setup. I don't believe most users will take the bother of overriding without it - but they will get a more pleasant system with overriding. Good advertising. Eivind.
