I am not sure if I understand the question correctly, but the Wine development and stable builds are available at http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/. They are built by Sebastian and me. If you look closely at the repository url in the installation instructions from the Wine Staging website, you will also see they point to dl.winehq.org.
We wrote our own virtual machine based build system for this purpose (e.g. https://dev.wine-staging.com/builder/group/408/ - Wine 3.2 release), which is largely automated. It requires only little attention and we therefore continue to offer this service. For the users of the development and stable branch nothing will change.
My question (which you understood correctly) was based on https://wine-staging.com/installation.html. Thanks for pointing me to the equivalent Wine site http://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/, and I am glad to hear you and Sebastian are continuing to maintain this important Wine service.

One of the extraordinarily useful services they provided was a Debian repository containing the latest (updated each two weeks) wine development and wine-staging releases for a variety of different Debian versions (Wheezy, Jessie, Stretch, Buster, and Sid). I haven't looked at their equivalent Fedora, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and macOS repositories (see https://wine-staging.com/installation.html) but I assume they have similar large scope.
If Wine does not already provide distribution repository services of such large scope for wine development releases now, could you do so? It just makes keeping up with the Wine cutting edge so much easier for Linux and Mac OS X users.
