Oleg Kalnichevski resolved HTTPCORE-529.
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> MD5 should no longer be provided on download pages
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCORE-529
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-529
> Project: HttpComponents HttpCore
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: http://hc.apache.org/downloads.cgi#HttpCore_4.4.10_GA
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Major
>
> The use of MD5 hashes on download pages was deprecated a while ago now.
> https://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#sigs-and-sums
> MD5 hashes should no longer be generated or linked from the download page.
> [They are only OK for historic releases that don't have other hashes]
> Also the sentence "The MD5 link downloads the checksum from the main site. "
> needs to be rephrased as it does not cover SHA hashes.
