digitalmars.D - D APT repository fails

I keep seeing along this last month many problems with the D APT 
repository.
There is any one cheeking the health of these repository ?

Now I get an error with 
"http://master.dl.sourceforge.net/project/d-apt/dists/d-apt/main/bi
ary-amd64/Packages" Wrong header line.

Using a phrase where I live, fails more that a fair shotgun.

You can mail the maintainer directly "Jordi Sayol". He does not frequently post on the NG.

I send an email to him yesterday. I agree with Michael, sourceforge isn't a reliable site for this. Perhaps Launchpad is a better place.

I've been noticing this for a while now. There seems to be a pattern of downtime. To be honest, given that Google has begun warning its users before allowing them to access sourceforge, it would be nice to move the repository to another, more stable site.
