Are you suggesting pointing users to the archives for current sigs and hashes?
If so, I don't think that's a good idea.

Maybe it isn't, but using dist is worse:
- Everything that lives on dist is temporary
- You end up with tons on liks to update (and some cannot really be fixed, such as URLs in PDFs obtained from security announcements, or URLs copy-pasted from them into blog posts)
- The bandwidth required for downloading hashes is obviously very tiny

So I really prefer to use permanent URLs (from archive) for hashes.

Updating the links to point to the archive server should be done for
both artifacts and sigs/hashes at the same time.

Artifacts in our case are much more manageable since we have one link in other.html ; in that case, it's clearly best to use the dist link until the version is available and the archive link when it is no longer available on dist.
