archive.apache.org

                 Key: CAMEL-3165
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-3165
             Project: Apache Camel
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: website
            Reporter: sebbASF


http://camel.apache.org/download-archives.html has a list of previous (and 
current) releases, which point to the release notes for each release, for 
example:
http://camel.apache.org/camel-150-release.html

This is very useful.

However, the download links in the release-specific pages all point to the 
mirror system.
This is not ideal, as superseded releases should removed from the mirroring 
system, thus breaking the links.

Most other projects I know include the link to archive.apache.org in the main 
download page, and don't include it in the release notes.

That makes it easier to maintain the website without making it harder to find 
the archives.

In summary what I'm suggesting as a fix is:
- Change the "Getting past releases" section in the main download page to point 
to archive.apache.org.
- remove the Binary Distributions and Source Distributions sections from the 
Getting the Distributions section of the all release notes, both existing and 
future
