Public bug reported: Registering a new mirror per the instructions at:
http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/mirror/3 and selecting the option "Apply to be an official mirror of this distribution" does not result in verification of the new mirror. The link above says: "Verification of newly submitted mirrors can take up to 48 hours before being published as official mirrors", but this is not happening. One can see that multiple people have had the problem by emails sent to the ubuntu-mirrors list: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- mirrors/2008-February/thread.html The result of this is less mirrors for Ubuntu and/or wasted time of people offering their mirror services. Expected result: Either the mirroring info pages on the website should be updated with more accurate information/instructions, possibly saying that no more mirrors are needed if that is the case, or people applying for their mirrors to be official mirrors should be regularly updated with the status of the application, including any reason that the application has failed or is being delayed.
