That was my intention. I was just going to configure the web server to
handle the new domain and point at the same storage area that PyPI
currently dumps stuff into.

I'd rather keep it on the same host to simplify the configuration; all
I need to do is configure another vhost in the current setup to handle
the new name. Moving the files to some other VM would require some
(significant, I think) work in PyPI to support handling storing the
files non-locally.
Isn't the risk pretty minimal given the content is all static?
