Hi,

(Not sure if this is the right list, but messages to docs@ in the last few
months seems unanswered so I hope this list has a wider audience).

While reviewing a PR to Subversion related to some new API in Httpd, I went
to look for information on the Httpd website. I noticed that there are
links in the menu under Source Repositories ("Trunk" and "2.4") pointing to
ASF's Viewvc site.

Viewvc seems to have been disabled since some time in February, see for
example some issues in Jira: [1][2].

Would it be better to replace with links to the readonly GitHub
repositories? I'd be happy to send a PR on the httpd-site repo.

Cheers,
Daniel

I think that would be very helpful, yes. viewvc is committers-only these 
days (tragedy of the commons, plus AI scrapers...), and github is much 
better equipped to handle the request load.
