Sorry I didn't notice this until now. Given: - downloads.racket-lang.org is AFAIK the recommended download host to ask first - it's still working - it's already known to redirect to some other server - tools/users like racket-travis already know to expect and follow redirects
It seems to me downloads.racket-lang.org can simply return a 302 Temporary Redirect to whatever download server happens to be working this week. And change it back next week. And next month. It all keeps working for all users. I think this is exactly the sort of situation 302s are intended for. (As I mentioned above I think the current 301 Permanent Redirect is mistaken. I believe it means, "Stop asking me about this resource -- forever.")
