Are we going to use cacheboy as our primary download mechanism?   If
so, it looks like we can point activities.sl.o to use
sugarlabs.cdn.cacheboy.net. (the origin cacheboy server)  From there,
the activities would be served via the cacheboy system.

Does this mean running two separate cacheboy nodes, an origin node and
a mirror node?  How is this generally handled?
