I have a series of patches under development to run a one hit sanity test which tries to verify the user can fetch and in the case of failure point the user to a wiki page where we'd document common causes of fetch failures. We're also going to look at the site.conf file, which can be used to specify proxy settings and other site specific settings such MIRRORS, and ensure that it can easily be edited to help people get set up. It'd be great if people who operate behind a proxy/firewall can help us document the steps they had to take to work around this. Further if you have other ideas as to how we can help make this process less painful please let us know.
