Fudge,

fastest cvsup is very limited. Right now the way I run the command is to find the fastest cvsup servers between the US and the UK. Adding any more countries to the list increases the time it takes to find a working cvsup server. The good news is, the project team has been inspired to build our own CVSUP mirror. I have a few test servers online at the moment and am excited about adding them into project.

There is one option I can look into; I can write an Question/Answer part for fastest_cvsup. that asks 1. "Do you want to use the countries (US/Uk) " 2. "What countries do you want to use? ". The challenge with this would be, creating a fault tolerance response system that could detect if a countries is valid or invalid an weather there are cvsup servers. Please let me know if this is what you would like. I can start writing something. It may not be added in this next release, but surely the one after that.
