Permanent storage for implementation docs referenced from image

While doing a bit of background reading on the Random algorithm used
in the image I found this [1] which describes the choice of the
initialised magic numbers.  So I would like to reference this document
from the class comment.  However one day the link may die, so I was
wondering if such could get a permanent place under Pharo control
(e.g. files.pharo.com), or we just submit them to the WayBackMachine
[2] [3] and hope for the best.

Great read! Thanks Ben.

There is no reason to expect that files.pharo.org links will not rot
away for such unusual content.
Also I'm pretty sure that copying it there is against copyright; this
however also applies for Web Archive (plus the owner of the domain can
retroactively remove content from Web Archive).
So why not just put there the name of the article (and it's DOI),
which is sufficient to always trace the article (just like any
reference in any article), and have the regular link for convenience?

p.s.: pharo.com is a hedge fund ;)

They had enough money to buy the domain…
