i've added the redirects to the appropriate .htaccess file over in people.apache.org. if you try http://people.apache.org/dist/incubator/uima, it should redirect to the archives. when your retire a release from the main download site to the archives, you may want to add redirects to the archives. however, since these URLs should not be used directly (they bypass the mirrors), it's reasonable just to change the links from your download documents. > We would appreciate any "checking" you could do of our work to migrate > to the mirror system. looks fine to me (not sure if you're bothered but) when using mirrors, the download stats collected from binary hits will no longer accurate. some projects use google analytics to collect this information. > Thanks for all your help. and thanks for acting as guinea pigs :-) i need to write this up so if anyone has any spare cycles to help improve the documentation or provide examples, that'd be much appreciated - robert
