Do never remove any mirrors from the mirrorlist! Acturally, if a Taiwan user tries to connect a China mirror, the connection is really really slow. The same as Hong Kong or Macau, although they belong to China. If you remove any mirror from the mirrorlist, only trouble will be brought to the user. Sam ----------------------------------------

I have found a solution. All mirrors in countries with disputed names are just removed from the official mirrorlist.
I believe servers south of the Mason-Dixon line should be listed under the country name "Confederate States of America". Under this new solution, I propose removing USA servers south of the Mason-Dixon line from the mirrorlist.
Done.
