Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-4431:
--------------------------------------------------
I think unless there is a very good reason to prominently offer an old release,
we should not do it. Mind that the page explicitly says "Latest Official
Downloads" and not "Assortment of stuff that people might still be using".
If we have a good reason, it should be clearly stated on the downloads page
what the reason is.
What would be the reason for you still to offer 2.6.0 - it being the last Java
5 release?

> Btw, we are having stuff accumulating on the downloads page... imho
> it should only list the latest versions of our packages and for older
> versions only offer a generic reference to the Apache archive.
> I think the following changes should be made:
> - Remove DUCC 1.0.0
> - Remove UIMA 2.6.0
> - Factor UIMA-AS 2.6.0 out into a separate download section
> and mention that it is compatible with UIMA 2.7.0
> (I guess that's what we tell people on the list, so it might
> as well be made official on the downloads page).
> - Remove Apache UIMA Version 2.5.0
> - Remove Apache UIMA Version 2.4.2
> - Remove Apache UIMA Version 2.4.0
