This is just FYI, no action needed :-)

When we commit to dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release these get copied to the
Apache mirror distribution system (including the base www.apache.org/dist/uima )

Henk Penning runs automatic checking software the insures things are properly
signed.

He's augmented this recently with more automatation, which, in turn depends on a
file to be kept in the directory www.apache.org/dist/uima/META - uima.html (
plus an ".asc" gpg signature).

Henk said in an email to me:

I wonder if I can ask you to do a little experiment ...

  -- install https://checker.apache.org/META/uima.html as dist/uima/META
  -- create dist/uima/META.asc with your key "cc762ffdcd04cfd6"

  It would enable checker.apache.org to show, for ever uima artifact,
  a proof that the artifact is authentic.

  See for example :

    
https://checker.apache.org/sums/5d71c0133401aeb48b6e492c7650d3b3f57b18ee.html

  Hope to hear from you ; any feedback is appreciated.

  Thanks ; regards,

  Henk Penning

I have done this to aid in his "experiment".  The file uima.html and its .asc
are being kept in the uima-website project, in the directory META.  The
uima-website project HOWTO file is updated with a bit of info about this, as 
well.
