IMO, it would have been much better to move the _write_ access (which is
only used by DDs and alioth guests) to a separate *hierarchy* (**not** to a
single new host, that's far less future-proof), leaving the read-only access
URIs (which is of general interest and therefore documented everywhere
including on thousands of packages' metadata) unchanged.
