The main problem with this is that you can never get to the backup
mirrors (try clicking the bottom links).

I think you need to announce the
http://geronimo.apache.org/downloads.html page. That gives you the
most freedom to change links later.

yes, we will announce the downloads page...



Cheers,

We're really excited about this release, and got a little ahead of
ourselves.  We need to let the code propagate out to our mirrors,
so please don't publish the link below, but rather go to our
mirrors via the download page :

http://geronimo.apache.org/downloads.html

Again, please do not publish the link below.

http://www.apache.org/dist/geronimo/1.0-M5/geronimo-installer-1.0- M5.jar

Is this cool with everyone?  I just added an .htaccess file to
redirect these URLs to the mirrors page (try and see).  I took a look
around and saw a bunch of the Jakarta projects doing similar redirects.

We can maybe take it down after the flood of downloads is over.  Or
now if someone doesn't like it.  Or never.  But with that it should
be ok to publish any variety of "http://www.apache.org/dist/geronimo/
1.0-M5" link.

Significant Changes Since the M4 Release
----------------------------------------
 * Complete Tomcat integration (YAY!)
 * Configuration of ports, hosts, and most other attributes
without rebuilding the server
 * A web management console (developer preview)
 * Official J2EE Certification (as soon as paper work is filed)

Special Thanks
--------------
 * Thanks to the community for all of their input and patches to
help get us to where we are at.

 * Aaron Mulder for all his work on console to get it in a usable
state.

 * The ActiveMQ guys for helping out with the bugs and burning the
midnight oil to help get the release out in a timely fashion.

 * Dims for getting the patches into Axis.

 * Gianni for fixing up TranQL and CMP issues

 * A BIG HUGE thanks for David Blevins and David Jencks for
working with me into the wee-hours of the night, testing and
getting Geronimo to pass the TCK tests for both the Jetty *and*
Tomcat containers.  These guys really stepped up and didn't leave
me hanging with Tomcat issues for my lonesome ;-)

 * Everyone else on the team who contributed and worked crazy
hours to get this release out. (If your name was not
mentioned...this means you).
