Comment (by nickm):

 Hi!  Anarcat asked me to comment here explaining what we (the network
 team) need.

 As best as I know, the only things that we make that get uploaded to
 archive.tpo are our source distribution tarballs and their accompanying
 signatures.  We should make sure that none of these ever gets lost.  We
 produce 1-4 of these per month, and upload them to dist-
 master.torproject.org, which then syncs them to dist.torproject.org.
 Previously they have been synced to archive.torproject.org automatically.
 We remove them from dist-master when they are sufficiently obsolete.

 The easiest solution for us would be to leave all of our packages in place
 on archive.tpo and do nothing at all.  This may not be feasible for reason
 of disk  space.

 The next easiest solution would be to have some automatic process that
 uploads these tarballs (and their signature files) to archive.org whenever
 they are uploaded to dist.

 If neither of those is possible, we need permissions and instructions for
 archiving these tarballs manually.  These instructions should get folded
 into doc/HACKING/ReleasingTor.md in our git repository, and it would be
 great if they were so simple that a C developer could do them without
 messing up. :)
