Description
...is listed on https://mirrors.opensuse.org/ as US. When I checked on https://www.ipligence.com/geolocation it was reported to be in Austria. Reason I was looking is I cannot locate a US mirror of TW i586 port that is up to date and not slower than molasses. Princeton is normally good, but is 20251228, more than a month behind other mirrors showing 20260204.
I tried posting this to mirror@lists.opensuse.org, and got the following as a response:

Research direction
Start by checking the slc-mirror.opensuse.org entry on mirrors.opensuse.org and compare its recorded country with the reported geolocation and mirror freshness. The issue needs a confirmed scope: correcting the country listing, addressing the unavailable or outdated US mirror, or both; done should mean the relevant mirror metadata and availability accurately reflect reality.
