I expected to see a list of mirrors of where I am now, in other words, same stuff, different host. That's the custom I'm used to. But apparently by "Mirrors" you mean "Download locations".

Also: none of the US download URLs is currently working from either of hosts I tried (one in Silicon Valley and one in L.A.)
