             Summary: Improve access to archived versions of Lucene and Solr
                 Key: LUCENE-5631
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5631
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: general/website
            Reporter: Shawn Heisey


When visiting the website to download Lucene or Solr, it is very difficult for 
people to locate where to download previous versions.  The archive link does 
show up when you click the download link, but the page where it lives is 
replaced in less than a second by the CGI for picking a download mirror for the 
current release.  There's nothing there for previous versions.

At a minimum, we need a link to the download archive that's right below the 
main Download link.  Something else I think we should do (which might actually 
be an INFRA issue) would be to have the "closer.cgi" page include a link to the 
archives.
