Are there any reasons why that redirect should not apply to the whole website? 
(If not every podling and project website?)

Some projects have different language sections. I think podlings that differ 
from the standard pattern should provide the urls in their 
podlings/{podling}.yml file.

Sebb - you could then include download page analysis in 
https://whimsy.apache.org/pods/

Also: if anyone visits http://podling.apache.org/download 
 it MUST redirect to 
https://podling.apache.org/download . 
(Note ‘http’ in first ‘https’ in second.)

Require websites to have standard download URL?

[sebb]

Many of the podling websites have a download page of the form:

https://.apache.org/download/

Given that every website must have a download page, and that the
/download/ URL can easily be redirected to an alternate page, it might
be worth considering making this URL a requirement for all podling
websites.
