That's why I asked how frequently the bootstrap files needed updates earlier - if they're fairly static, then simply asking for a copy to be hosted on PyPI and documenting that as the canonical location is by far the most straightforward solution. The only reason for an API would be if the projects wanted to be able to update them directly without asking the PyPI admins to upload a new version (and, as you note, that could potentially be handled via ssh/scp config rather than via the PyPI web app).
