             Summary: Remove MD5 and SHA-1 checksums 
                 Key: BROOKLYN-597
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-597
             Project: Brooklyn
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Geoff Macartney


Per the recently updated Apache Release Distribution Policy, 
[https://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution], we should remove the 
generation and checking of MD5 and SHA-1 checksums from brooklyn-dist/release 
before we do another release, presumably 1.0.

The relevant wording is 
{quote}For every artifact distributed to the public through Apache channels, 
the PMC
 * MUST supply a 
[valid|https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#verifying-signature] 
[OpenPGP-compatible ASCII-armored detached 
signature|https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#openpgp-ascii-detach-sig] 
file
 * MUST supply at least one checksum file
 * SHOULD supply a [SHA-256 and/or 
SHA-512|https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing#sha-checksum] checksum file
 * SHOULD NOT supply a MD5 or SHA-1 checksum file (because these are deprecated)

For new releases, PMCs MUST supply SHA-256 and/or SHA-512; and SHOULD NOT 
supply MD5 or SHA-1. Existing releases do not need to be changed.
