I have moved the Sparse homepage to
http://kernel.org/pub/software/devel/sparse .  (That location previously
contained an old BK repo of Sparse; I tarred that up and saved it if anyone
wants it for some reason, but I think the Git repo contains the history.)

I will soon move the Git repository as well, to the original location at
/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git .  I will likely maintain a symlink from my
current repo's location, to avoid gratuitously breaking people's checkouts or
automated scripts.

However, I know that other people sometimes maintain Sparse Git repositories,
and as far as I can tell, "people" directories only exist under
/pub/linux/kernel/people.  Where should people keep Sparse repos, if not
there?

Also, if possible, I'd like to have an HTTP 301 redirect from
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/josh/sparse (and everything under
it, via RedirectMatch) to the corresponding page under the new homepage at
http://kernel.org/pub/software/devel/sparse .  Could someone with the
appropriate access please do so, or let me know if I can do so somehow?
