+The Gentoo infrastructure team maintains serveral rsync mirrors. This
+rotation is called <c>rsync.gentoo.org</c>. The <c>SYNC</c> variable in
+<path>/etc/make.conf</path> is set to this rotation by default.
+These mirrors are located globally and may not be the fastest for your location,
+however, they are very reliable. Please do not use a mirror in this rotation
+directly, instead only use the rotation.

+The following is the listing of individual Portage rsync mirrors that are run
+by the community. Community mirrors come and go, but they are monitored to make
+sure that they are up to date. It is advised to use a rotation instead of a
+single mirror directly. This helps spread out the load and provides a failsafe
+in case a specific mirror is offline.
