[tei-council] Sourceforge Upgrade

[Gabriel Bodard]

You can still checkout from the old address, but the contents won't be 
up-to-date any more. I've no idea how long that will remain.

Is it even possible to do an anonymous checkout via SSH? I bet SF have a 
less secure address for that sort of thing (I know Github do, for example).
