That's irrelevant. Yes, savannah hosts the elpa repository, but the
actual package download server is a different machine, elpa.gnu.org.
It offers packages for download in much the same way as ftp.gnu.org
offers release tarfiles.

(But I thought/assumed Stefan maintained elpa.gnu.org, so I don't know
why he is referring people to Savannah about it. I hope *someone* is
keeping the system up-to-date and monitored, eg as I do for
debbugs.gnu.org.)
