Unfortunate, but just to say that I have nothing to say against
dropping these if it's a maintenance burden.

Had one concern but complete removal (rather than keeping mirrors
archived) would mostly handle it. Aka so that users can't keep
sync'ing with these dead mirrors by mistake (often caused issues when
we removed overlays but mirror stayed behind, users wouldn't notice a
thing until lacking updates started to break things).

As been mentioned in another post, maybe will need a news item to
explain this still though.
