Needless to say that I'm one of those badly hurt by unavailability.

I simply cannot compile/run Scala Native since it depends on clang-3.8 :-(

Have you guys considered mirroring the APT repository?
Do you guys need a hand to investigate how your APT repository could be 
mirrored by, say...
http://www.mirrorservice.org/ ?

Thanks a lot,

Since the APT repository is down... everything under that location is 
unavailable, including the instructions on how I could build/install 
LLVM/clang from sources. Could you guys advise, please?


    How to build *LLVM* *Debian*/Ubuntu packages from *source*?
    <http://llvm.org/apt/building-pkgs.html>

... , ensure you add to your apt.*sources* the nightly repositories for 
... The *Debian* package for each *LLVM* point release is maintained as 
a separate SVN ...
