Hi Craig,

I'd suggest if you want to make the JARs available as official
distributions, but still separate from the zips, then you should copy
them into:
http://www.apache.org/dist/db/jdo/2.0/
as well and link to the normal mirroring system.

Thanks for the advice. Now that we know what's happening we can make some decisions.

Regards,

Craig

Cheers,
Brett

But where are they on ibiblio? I can't find them. They used to be in
"java-repository" at http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/apache/
java-repository.

So maybe they are no longer available as separate downloads, but
available only by maven?

We used to publish the jar files as maven artifacts that could be
downloaded directly by a user by following a link to a mirror site.
Or maven could fetch them all by itself.

Our .cgi script contained e.g.
<a href="http://apache.roweboat.net/java-repository/javax.jdo/jars/
jdo2-api-2.0.jar">jdo2-api-2.0.jar</a>
[<a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/java-repository/javax.jdo/jars/
jdo2-api-2.0.jar.asc">PGP</a>]
[<a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/java-repository/javax.jdo/jars/
jdo2-api-2.0.jar.md5">MD5</a>]

So I'm still confused.

And I'm now on the repository@ alias.

Thanks,
