Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5874:
--------------------------------------

Good idea.  There are two things to update: one is the uima website which may 
have links to some recent things.  The other is the 
[https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/uima/] svn spot. 

Per discussion on the mailing list, the uima website (especially the docs/ 
directory) also needs archiving, and the discussion on the mailing list has a 
concensus to keep a parallel site (next to trunk) with a name 
svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/site/archive/docs/d, with copies of things we 
want as archive copies.  This will allow a fixed link, and also permit greatly 
shrinking the svn checkout size for the uima-website.

I'll create that svn spot, and svn-copy some older sets of javadocs etc. for 
older releases (that are not currently pointed to by our downloads page, or if 
they are, I'll update the links if I decide it's time to move them).

> It seems we have basically *all* our old releases still in the dist spot - 
> but Apache says we should only keep around the latest releases:
> http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#how-to-archive
> How about deleting some old releases and just keeping the latest ones for 
> each product in the UIMAv2 and UIMAv3 versions (if available).?
