Sorry to have to bring this up again after all this time, but it seems to be a small issue again.
As you can see it's back in the rotation again:

From my freshclam.log there have been four attempts to use that mirror since Apr 25, three successes and only this failure:

That mirror is not included on your mirror status site <http://www.clamav.net/mirrors.html>
Another user notified me that he had a failure with this mirror yesterday, so I've been trying to do a trace route on it over the last 24 hours and it times out after hitting "mirrors.200p-sf.sonic.net (69.12.162.27)" so it's apparently down.
So here are a few questions:
- Is clamav-mirror.sonic.net still in the rotation?
- Is it reliable enough to retain it and if so can it be added back to the mirror status page?
- What's the current rule on when an error is counted as a failure in mirrors.dat?
