Hi -

I had a follow up conversation with Infra.

We are discussing just using downloads.a.o without mirrors. We should just get 
a sense of the size by switching over either random requests or choosing a 
particular language.

So, let’s say we change the de download page to use downloads.a.o! If all goes 
well, we switch over the others a few at a time.

Keep in mind downloads only has current versions with older ones on archives.a.o

All the best,
Dave
