sure, zeroth draft:


Bad Vcs-* URLs include:

Vcs-(Arch|Cvs|Darcs|Hg|Bzr|Svn):.*debian\.org

Vcs-Git:.*(git|anonscm|alioth)\.debian\.org

Vcs-Browser:.*(svn|bzr|darcs|git|hg|anoncms|anonscm|alioth)\.debian\.org



vcs-field-uses-deprecated-infrastructure

The VCS-* field contains a URI pointing at the deprecated alioth.debian.org 
infrastructure. The servers will become read-only in May 2018. Packages can 
migrate to git hosting on salsa.debian.org.

For further information about salsa.debian.org, see:
        https://wiki.debian.org/Salsa

HTTP redirects from alioth to salsa can be made by requesting that they added 
to the AliothRewriter project:
        https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/AliothRewriter/

Tools to help with the migration exist, including:
        https://salsa.debian.org/mehdi/salsa-scripts/



For the others who have contributed to this bug -- anything else I've 
forgotten?
