set (e.g. Vasile's server really only wants traffic from .md users,
but he sees global users). This requires a change to
mirrorlist_server.py trim_by_client_country() which I haven't made
yet, but will look into doing so. We should make this change to
provide better accurate clients to our mirrors to keep their
expenses down. I'll post the patch here for review before implementing.
I'm not sure how invasive this will be but it does sound like something
we want to keep our mirrors happy. Maybe seeing the patch first will
be better for deciding if it's too big a change during the freeze.
