Actually the sync script is on w3c-test.org too

Yeah I agree it could be better to have something more reliable, but as far as W3C-maintained servers, we have nothing else at our disposal other than w3c-test.org.

That said, I think the reliability of w3c-test.org has improved. The most-recent big hiccups were to due to us having moved it from one VM hosting platform to another (now running on OpenStack at MIT).

Oh, and we have the issue about running out of inodes sometimes, which is a chronic issue but one we can deal with easily and reliably just be deleting (manually right now) old stale PR dirs in the `submissions` tree. But I think we are going to have the problem regardless of where we host. I guess the best way to fix it would be to have some “aging“ script that automatically removes `submissions` subdirectories once they are older than a certain number of days.
