  On retirement we remove GHOSTS from committee-info.txt and

  In short, we have pointers to GHOSTs, but not among the living ;

But we keep ghost.apache.org.

  We would map it into attic-space if we could do it elegantly.

  Fixing website GHOST.apache.org is a hassle.
  It would be nice if we could present it "as is",
  prefixed with the necessary "RETIRED" head.

  Perhaps with something like :

    https://mirror-vm.apache.org/frames.html

  At the moment this doesn't work too good ;

  -- browers don't like http urls on https page
  -- sites don't like to be included in <FRAME>'s

  But maybe this can fixed without touching the
  /content/ of GHOST.a.o ; with config fixes only.
