Revisiting this, could we simply host styles from the
citationstyles.org domain, without having a copy of the Zotero Style
Repository scripts running on the citationstyles.org server? Can we
rely on GitHub for this (while serving the styles with the appropriate
MIME-type)? I really would like to move away from the current
"self"-link prefix "http://www.zotero.org/styles/"; to something like
"http://citationstyles.org/style/";. There is ongoing confusion among
users about Zotero's role in maintaining the CSL repository (e.g.
https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/31542/reporting-style-errors/ ),
and the current "self" links hurt CSL's ability to profile itself as
an independent project, which doesn't do anybody any service.
