Comment:

 I think I agree with Mike that this should not be a Tor Browser team task
 (even if it were only Tor Browser stuff that would be on archive.tpo which
 is not the case; there are old and new tor tarballs there as well and
 other stuff that seems to get updated sometimes). That said I agree as
 well that one of our team (I'd say boklm, too) could keep this running for
 a while until we have a proper maintenance plan in place. So, yes, but
 let's start with a better plan in parallel. I definitely don't want to
 have this on our plate without a concrete idea of how to move this forward
 in the right direction.

 weasel: What is the deadline here? I am trying to get a handle on how much
 time we have left to develop a better solution.
