---------------------------------------------
I am really concerned because as a new user i am unable to download it. Tried
with several mirrors and was unable to download, so thought it was a bug.

> 5. http://bluedogfan.com/wp-signup.php?new=mirrors page is displayed with the
> message Registration has been disabled.
> To fix this bug i have changed
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/velocity/engine/trunk/xdocs/docs/getting-started.xml
> code.
> Under section dowloading velocity i have changed:
> <a href="http://velocity.apache.org/download.cgi#engine";>Velocity</a>
> to
> <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/velocity/engine";>Velocity</a>
