For anyone who didn't see the original thread, the PMC received instructions to review their release distribution areas in www.apache.org/dist and remove any old releases. sebb removed some older releases, and I asked if the oro tree could be removed entirely since it has moved to the attic. However, the same is true for ecs and taglibs, so I'm expanding this topic to cover ECS, ORO, and Taglibs, all of which have been attic'ed, but still have directory trees in dist/.

After looking into it, I can't find any download links off of attic.apache.org for the above projects pointing visitors to archive.apache.org/dist/. I may have simply missed it. >Probably my fault when I cleared up the downloads site definitions. I don't think you missed anything (and thanks for all the work you did by the way). Everything at http://attic.apache.org/process.html appears to have been done. I think we should remove the download links on the dead project pages and leave it up to the Attic PMC to decide whether they should place a link to archive.apache.org/dist/ on their site (it's probably there somehwere and I just couldn't find it). Whatever the case may be, I'd still like to remove www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/{ecs,oro,taglibs} if there are no objections. If someone can point me to instructions on updating dead project pages (do I just modify the HTML directly on /www/jakarta.apache.org/... and check that in?), I can remove the "Downloads" link from the oro and ecs pages. I can't find any download links on the taglibs pages, but its attic page has a bunch of non-functioning download links. >BTW, this discussion should presumably now be on the Jakarta general list. > >Not sure why it was ever private (I responded to the original e-mail >which was private) Done. daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@jakarta.apache.org
