Comment 14 for bug 273921

The original purpose of this patch repository was to provide patches to Debian.

The DEX project has reviewed all of the patches there and ensured that they are filed in the Debian BTS as appropriate: http://dex.alioth.debian.org/ubuntu/ancient-patches/status/

Therefore, from my perspective and that of DEX, this content is obsolete and I see no reason why it needs to be kept online at any location anymore.
