Probably not, but in more recent years, we've been talking about how to distribute non-ALv2 from ASF hardware. Essentially along the lines of, "this is not ASF software; we are providing it here as a convenience." We just don't want to mislead people to think they are Apache releases or Apache-licensed. Identifying the archival releases that need to be saved is important, regardless. Maybe the TDF could distribute those, or maybe OSU/OSL or one of our mirror providers. I've got to believe that a volunteer provider would be willing to hold the archives. Cheers, -g
