Grandstanding aside, it is probably best to take this in chunks. The all-or-nothing fetch restriction control does seem like a good place to start improving. I could certainly see where that could create needless problems. It just hasn't been much of an issue because fetch restriction is rare. Mirror restriction is likely a bigger problem even if it is somewhat user-invisible. Do we really want to hammer something like dev.gentoo.org for patches that aren't properly mirrored because the original source cannot be? Rich
