Geronimo use the dist directory [1], UIMA use also their distribution directory [2], Maven host it on codehaus [3], Harmony use their web-site [4], and as Xavier said, Apache Directory also use their web site [5].

I tried to search the archives, but it seems that I don't have the required karma (or that I didn't look at the right place).
