look like we've missed the chance for this :(
this change needed infrastructure to update a list of paths to make the cgi script work with the new url. unfortunately, it took a few days to get this processed. in the mean time, commons collections was released.
it's a bit of a pity since i've spent this evening working on new download pages but i'm rolling back these changes and asking infrastructure to remove the url from the list. we'll probably need more coordination (and probably a pmc sanctioned release freeze) to make changes to the download pages. so, since henri has plans for a rethink, we might as well wait and move to the new system directly.
oh well: win some, lose some. that's just the way it is...

PROPOSAL+1
--------
i'd like to shift all jakarta commons component downloads onto separate
pages which are linked from the main ones. i think that this will
prolong the useful life of the original page without really effecting
it's utility.
+1.
I'd had some complaints from users about the difficulty of downloading
(too many click's). I like the dynamic closer.cgi page that the maven
download is using. We should just have a single download page with all the
commons components on, and it should not mention mirrors at all.
All links for downloads should then be aimed at the cgi, which will have
all the mirror info for each file.
