They are in /usr/doc/MIRRORS

SIDE NOTE: 
Allthough the lines are still bad the connection seems
to have worked again. So those who are/were supping from here, go ahead.

Nope but an upgrading file doesn't seem to take as long as a 
Recieving file and files which were allready transfered seem
to get upgraded instead of received.

allsrc seems to be the same as:
src,ksrc,games,regress

I think if probs continue I'll switch to that too, unless
someone points out that they differ vastly.
