Description perfectlyfineid 2017-05-22 17:04:17 UTC 
Since last week, major ISPs in Ukraine are blocking access to most of Yandex services.

This restricts access to ftp0.ydx.freebsd.org and, basically, prevents users from accessing download.freebsd.org and other services that being rerouted to russian regional mirror; using pkg tool.

Proposition: reroute to EU-west mirror.

Thanks, I've updated the GeoDNS tables to reroute all of Ukraine to the EU mirror, the change should be live in the next few minutes.
