Bug Description
At the moment, the mirror page listing is not neatly aligned (each country has its own table, this is not appropriate, please put it all in one table with a full row given to each country, so that details line up).

Guilherme's changes to the bug description caught me off guard because
it wasn't exactly what I had envisaged. I had still imagined the table
would look like this:
Argentina
www.foo.ar xxx yyy
www.bar.ar ttt zzz
Germany
www.net.de bbb zzz
www.bong.de aaa www
This, I think, looks cleaner since it does not repeat the country name
again and again. What I meant by "one full table" is that all of this
should be a single table, with a colspan="n" attribute on the country
field so that the country takes up a full row. The point of putting it
all in a single table is to have all the detail rows line up (the domain
names, the columns of data are all aligned nicely).
The disadvantage is that it is difficult to use the to-sort- table trick on a table laid out like this, without click-to- sort functionality. It should simply be sorted by
click-header-
a LOT of extra JavaScript, which is out of bounds for this feature :-).
However, I don't actually think this table needs to have the
row-header-
country first, then speed.
