I’d rather go back to the very old xz as joeyh did.
The one in bullseye, too, is likely safe.

And I’d rather backport myself than sponsoring someone’s
backport, for the same reasons I was wary in #1067708.

tbh I don’t think sponsoring is a viable model for bpo
anyway, as they need the backporter to take responsibility
for the backported party.

No, just the Github Pages thing larhzu pointed the host
to in good faith.
