Hostnames for subversion and package upload that devtools can use. This is the umpteenth time that the host name changes - these aliases would solve this problem transparently.
We can also use a config file for devtools programs instead of have config vars harcoded in scripts.
The hostnames are "hardcoded" in your subversion checkout - and migrating the checkout is annoying, because subversion sucks.
Why are you guys arguing against having two extra DNS CNAMEs to make everyone's lives easier?
nobody is arguing. just trying to understand their purpose. the following are in place:

Correct. We should now tell everyone to migrate their SVN checkouts to these hostnames. Devtools should use those as well. Starting now, when we change hosts, we just adjust these CNAMES.
