Hello from Gregg C Levine

It happens I did just that, the first few times I tried downloading my
Cygwin materials from sites here in the US. The people there ignored
my mail, or just plain deleted it unread. I don't know why.

 I also reported to them the problems with downloading the materials
from them, when the site would inexplicably interrupt the process.
What do you feel about deleting them from the list of allowable
mirrors? We can include the alternate mirror of course.
