Hi all,
I would like to share that I decided to change the implementation of
cdn.debian.net. Then, some of the operations are changing.
On this weekend, I have changed the way for providing cdn.debian.net from
ruby implementation "dns-balance" to Amazon Web Services DNS service
"Route53".

Top reason is security. DNS infrastructure is very important. Sometimes, "
dns-balance" was attacked. Fortunately, it seems I can protect it by today.
However, I am too busy to spend my time for paying attention to operate
cdn.debian.net.


Deprecated feature:
* ASN routing

New feature:
* State based geoip routing for US and Canada.
* More faster, reliable and robust.

(Planned feature):
* AAAA support



P.S.
If somebody has debian official mirror lists in JSON format, could you
provide it and/or show the way for making.


Thanks.
