Old releases should be deleted from dist directory structure

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIR-229
             Project: Directory
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sebb

The dist directory structure has a lot of old releases. These should be 
deleted; if users want them they will be available from the archive server.

At present the extra releases are confusing (and use unecessary space on 
mirrors).

For example:

http://www.apache.org/dist/directory/studio/stable/

has directories for:

 0.8.1/                  19-Jul-2007 12:44    -   
 1.0.0/                  04-Sep-2007 08:14    -   
 1.0.1/                  18-Sep-2007 13:33    -   
 1.1.0/                  04-Apr-2008 11:43    -   
 1.1.0_RC/               19-Feb-2008 08:14    -   
 1.1.0_RC2/              03-Mar-2008 21:09    -   

Only 1.1.0 is current; the others should be deleted.
In particular, the RC and RC2 directories are confusing, because they appear 
after 1.1.0.

The same considerations apply to all the product subdirectories.

There are also several KEYS files in the structure; it would be simpler to have 
a single KEYS file at the top-level:

{code}
-rw-rw-r--  1 apbackup     directory  3785 Feb 25  2006 ./mina/KEYS
-rw-rw-r--  1 pamarcelot  directory  907 Sep  3  2007 ./ldapstudio/KEYS
-rw-rw-r--  1 pamarcelot  directory  10410 Sep 10  2007 ./KEYS
-rw-rw-r--  1 pamarcelot  directory       907 Feb 13  2007 ./studio/KEYS~
-rw-rw-r--  1 pamarcelot  directory    1202 Sep 10  2007 ./studio/KEYS
-rw-rw-r--  1 akarasulu    directory  9208 May 27  2007 ./KEYS~
{code}
