Sebb commented on IGNITE-2980:
------------------------------

I think that would be OK, so long as there are plenty of warnings that the 
downloads are not tested etc and come with no guarantees.

It might be better to have a separate page linked from the contribute page.

> Download page must not link to snapshots / nightly builds

> Nightly builds / snapshots which are not formal releases should not be linked 
> from the main download page.
> Such builds have not been voted on and should only be used by developers who 
> should be made aware that the code is without any guarantees,
> Nightly builds are not formal ASF releases, and must not be promoted to the 
> general public.
> See [1] second para. The second sentence states:
> "Do not include any links on the project website that might encourage 
> non-developers to download and use nightly builds, snapshots, release 
> candidates, or any other similar package."
