----------------------------------------
[~michael-o] ,
> Why do you actually publish files with Sourceforge at all? I have recently

yes, this is just historical, but there is a nuance ... we publish special
checkstyle-7.6.1-all.jar (attention to "-all") that is composite of all our
dependencies to that resource. As far as I know maven central does not allow
hosting of non standard jars.
Link to jar is not a only problem, we host whole website on sourceforge so
there are a lot of other links that fail with handshake error.
There is long discussion of SSL problems with link-check-plugin
https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/pull/4114 .
> https link does not exists and redirected by website to another url

> http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/checkstyle/checkstyle/7.7-SNAPSHOT/checkstyle-7.7-SNAPSHOT-all.jar
> it does not exists on sourceforge, as we publish only released jars,
> http://wheregoes.com/retracer.php for

> show a problem(404) but in browser this link is redirected to

> Redirections are not allowed in config. Previously validation worked fine so
