I don't think the download directory locations are a problem.

However the download page has several problems:

https://xmlbeans.apache.org/sourceAndBinaries/

- no links to KEYS, sigs, hashes or even release artifacts.
- should not link to unreleased code (ie. no links to SVN)

Have a look at http://cxf.apache.org/download.html for a possible layout
with all the required information.
There are lots of others.
