I also stumbled over the switch from evancz/elm-http to elm-lang/http.  So 
I created https://github.com/evancz/elm-http/pull/56.  I suggest you do the 
same for other moved packages.

A complementary enhancement would be to automatically display the 
`elm-version` string on each package.elm-lang.org page.  Maybe even showing 
it in bright red when it doesn't include the latest Elm version.  Thoughts?
