Hmmm, I'd like to question this: why would the Incubator ever delete archives of releases? We have active links on the TLP for e.g., OODT and for e.g., Tika that point users to our Incubator releases that are still active Incubator links. I realize that archive.apache.org keeps a copy, but following your logic, why would any TLP maintain its own dist area? It could just point to the archives?
In my mind, it's perfectly acceptable to keep releases that are made in Incubator ville on the Incubator dist page -- that's not just a requirement for active Incubator projects, it should be true even when they graduate.
