Thanks Robert.
I can change the link to http://archive.apache.org/dist/jakarta/log4j/archives from the current link. However, the users will still getting the files from http://archive.apache.org/dist/jakarta/log4j/archives , not from one of its mirrors. Or am I missing something?

hi ceki
i've copied all the log4j versions in jakarta.apache.org/log4j into the archives. see
http://archive.apache.org/dist/jakarta/log4j/archives
could you update the earlier.xml to link to the archives?
i haven't deleted the older releases from the directory and so you can still download them if you know (or can guess) the url. i think that it'd be neater if they were removed but i'll leave that up to you.
you already have a good .htaccess in builds/jakarta-log4j so i've left that alone.

There are only few people who download the old files. So why waste energy optimizing a minute amount of network bandwidth? Just asking...

1. the main mirrored ASF distribution directories 2. the main ASF archives
the latest 1.2.8 release is available through the mirrors but the older releases are still available through the older unmirrored directories.
my proposal is that the older releases (under jakarta.apache.org/builds/
) be moved into the ASF archives (where they will remain available for download) and that all requests be redirected to the main jakarta binary download page where the latest release can be download or the link to the archives can be followed.
(unless someone else steps forward) i'll volunteer to carry out this work.
(unless someone corrects me) i'll assume that the decision will proceed by lazy consensus. (unless someone forces a vote before then) i'll carry out this work sometime after 12 noon GMT tomorrow (5th september)
