[ILUG] HEAnet and Sourceforge

[ILUG] HEAnet and Sourceforge

Formerly, when I would attempt to get something from Sourceforge, HEAnet was 
always offered as one of my download locations. I always assumed this was 
because of some kind of geo IP wizardry. Lately, however, it appears that the 
wizard has gone back to Oz, as I never get offered HEAnet. Not a biggie, as I 
pick something else and change the end of the URL to  =HEAnet. It would 
however be nicer not to have to do this.

I am using IBB as my ISP, and I have a static IP which has not changed. And 
other sites still know I'm in Ireland e.g.  www.whatismyip.com .

Does anyone have an idea why this might be?
