The 2 patches address the following: changing my name globally
(one time using the longform to prevent confusion), as well as
removing an url which probably served to explain why darcs
(allegedly?) has no https support. The url was not saved in the
internet archive, and it makes no sense to point to an url which
will now tell you that for GDPR reasons they shut down the service.

I hope I got the formal procedures right, it's been a long time since
I've sent a patch.
