Please do not continue spreading the use of that redirector. Just because 
there's one for sourceforge it doesn't mean it is okay to have one for other 
hosting services. We ideally want *none*.

Also, I never saw a reply to Iustin Pop's email (basically saying nobody had 
actually contacted google code.) Neither a "+1" or something to the 
ticket[1] opened by somebody else.

16 packages use it, there should be none.
