The primary link should be https not ftp, I've asked about this in a
thread which derailed and got not very much attention to the question I
asked so far.. which was rewritting all occurences of ftp:// on the
website to https:// for alpha.gnu.org.
As it is, it is inaccessible for tor users. This would fix it.
