[oe] Shall we remove bad-checksum files on http://sources.openembedded.org/?

[Philip Balister]

Can you look at what files get downloaded? mirrors exists to provide a
place to download files that have disappeared from their original
locations. People maintaining old systems should have saved local
copies, but if not they depend on our source mirrors for GPL compliance
exercises.

It would be useful to know what "old"files are being downloaded to give
us an idea how many people are using older "versions" of OpenEmbedded.
