Martijn Dashorst commented on WICKET-6089:
------------------------------------------

The post-processing scripts move the released artifacts from staging to dist in 
svn, but they can't drop the old release until the mirrors have picked up the 
new release. Therefore the script doesn't remove the old releases.

I'll consider writing a release-cleanup script that removes the build branch 
and the previous release from the dist repo. But even then someone (i.e. the 
release manager) needs to run the script and find time to do so.

Unless and until infra@ finds a way to have the mirrorring system sync up in 
minutes rather than hours this will remain a task that happens when someone 
finds time.

> Please delete old releases from mirroring system
