I wonder what is the best solution here. 

cme issues a warning is the vcs browser URL does not point to 
anonscm.debian.org. This host currently redirects to alioth. IIRC, it will  
point to salsa once the transition is done.

What can we do in the meantime with cme ?

- accepts both salsa and anonscm ? (this is a change that would need to be 
reverted once alioth to salsa transition is done)
- remove the check until the transition is done, so no warning is emitted
- do nothing (may be update the doc)

Thoughts ?
