I have a robust and tested solution to repository auto-discovery and selection ...

  Well yes, that too. :)
  
  And looking through the code, it's not quite as robust as I'd remembered. Good enough for JSAN, where there's only 30 mirrors.
  
  Not so great for CPAN with 300 or whatever it is now.
  
  I probably need to rejigger the internals to apply some decision making, and scan the mirrors incrementally.
