Mariadb-docker: Change download url to not use a fixed mirror
Currently the mirror of the Oregon State University is used to download the MariaDB packages.
I wonder why a mirror is used at all here?
I didn't found the original sources for Debian Packages, maybe MariaDB can be asked for that.
The generic packed sources can be found on GitHub or on https://downloads.mariadb.org/f/mariadb-$VERSION/source/mariadb-$VERSION.tar.gz which redirects to a mirror near you.

That would only help if we were downloading the source tar file, but we are using their deb repo, so we have to choose a mirror: https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/#mirror=accretive&distro=Debian&distro_release=jessie--jessie&version=10.1. :cry:

But where are the mirrors getting their sources from?

The Oregon State University mirror is the primary mirror for MariaDB.
All other mirrors pull from it.
