I personally keep copies of most plugins already for a while. Maybe not realy the last version, but I try.
I even try making my own SVN repository of plugins I use (and modify), including a full SVN repository of (all) VDR vesions from from 1.0.0 till now.

May be it would be a good idea about thinking to hosting VDR and the (main) plugins somewere centralised,
at least for the stable version.
Maybe just a backup copy of the plugin version needed for the last stable version of VDR.
