hmm good point, perhaps we ask nicely to get a few good mirrors that
conform to the same layout or even put out a request to the community
to provide mirrors in a layout consistent enough to do something like
this, it would surely make using dfly ALOT nicer.
Even with a url rewrite(as opposed to dns fix) if each mirror uses a
different layout now you have to maintain how to rewrite the url in
this script for each mirror, sounds like a pain to me.
