[Discuss] Seeking new GCT source tarball host

[Mischa Salle]

Hi all,

that's good news for the source tarballs, thanks!

However, the gridcf.org domain is definitely something that we need to
keep and on the same domain and hosts. I actually thought that all
content (incl. the repo) was going via cloudflare, not via OSG directly,
but maybe I'm confused.
