alioth deprecation - next steps
As you should be aware, alioth.debian.org will be decommissioned with the EOL of wheezy, which is at the end of May. The replacement for the main part of alioth, git, is alive and out of beta, you know it as salsa.debian.org. If you did not move your git repository yet, hurry up, time is running out.
The other important service from the alioth set, lists, moved to a new host and is now live at https://alioth-lists.debian.net with the lists which opted into migration. All public list archives moved over too and will continue to exist under the old URL.
decommissioning timeline
