Andrew Bayer commented on BIGTOP-24:
------------------------------------
Patch changes the download location for the various Apache tarballs to use the
Makefile-defined APACHE_MIRROR variable, which I've also changed to default to
use apache.osuosl.org, which I generally find to be faster than ibiblio.
I should note that this approach could cause problems if a Bigtop build is
trying to find a version of one of the component projects that is no longer
available in the main Apache download/mirror area, i.e., a particularly old
version. But for now, I don't think that's an issue we really need to worry
about, and we can cross that bridge if/when we get to it.

> We're seeing weird problems with downloading tarballs from dist.apache.org
> (and possibly other sites) barfing partway through. I'm going to try to use a
> dedicated mirror rather than dist.a.o so that we get more reliable d/ls.
