   > The main thing I want to be sure is from this build, what gets into the 
distro? only stuff from the maven repo, right? that is: this PR MUST NOT force 
updates in the binaries we ship.
   
   I don't quite understand the question. The premise seems to be that the 
current build is only grabbing stuff from the Maven repo. However, that's not 
true currently, and that's part of the problem. The build currently grabs stuff 
from the archives, and not just from the Maven repo. Those are the URLs that 
this PR changes... to use the ASF CDN instead of the archives. The only change 
that might affect the distro is a couple of tools do not have that version 
available in the CDN anymore, so a version bump was necessary to be able to 
grab it from the CDN instead of from the archives. However, I don't know if 
those affect the binaries in the distro either, or if those are only used as 
unshipped build tools. But even if it does change the binaries in some way, the 
current situation of automatically going to the ASF archives cannot continue... 
it makes offline builds very hard, and the download of things from the archives 
causes frequent builds to trigger automated bans of ASF services,
  because the archives aren't meant to be used this way (for routine builds).
