Updated references to bootstrap module to use new bootstrap.pypa.io locations. Fixes #192.

TLS deployed, you can now use https://bootstrap.pypa.io/

This is in progress to be fixed. I have it setup behind a CDN at http://bootstrap.pypa.io/ but we're waiting on the provider to issue an certificate so it can be moved behind TLS.

FYI. It's still an issue.

Hello, has there been any work around for this issue?

Fabtools uses a hardcoded URL (https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py) to download ez_setup.py. Since Atlassian is throttling it, it's breaking the install.

Sure, it'll have to be behind a .python.org domain somewhere though, or a .ssl.a.fastly.net domain name in order to get TLS.

Another option is to see about getting *.pypa.io behind Fastly and host them there.

@dstufft Do we have any options with fastly to serve the ez_setup.py bootstrap script?

By the way, I expect the error message to be intermittent as the rate drops again.

That's a real shame. Sounds as if we may have to work with Atlassian to exempt this resource or host it behind a CDN. Of course, hosting behind a CDN means issues with cache invalidation.

I'll have to think about this more.
