i'm pretty sure rsc is the owner of the 9fans repo on github. i think one of the reasons 'go get' handles redirects is to deal with cases when a repo changes location (like when a lot of stuff had to move from code.google.com to github.com or bitbucket.org recently). even if the generic repo site (e.g. 9fans.net) is maintained by a group of people , there will be times when that site is down.
