--------------------------------

             Summary: Download page must not link to snapshots / nightly builds
                 Key: CASSANDRA-11557
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11557
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sebb


Nightly builds / snapshots which are not formal releases should not be linked 
from the main download page.

http://ode.apache.org/getting-ode.html#nightly-builds

Such builds have not been voted on and should only be used by developers who 
should be made aware that the code is without any guarantees,

Nightly builds are not formal ASF releases, and must not be promoted to the 
general public.

See [1] second para. The second sentence states:

"Do not include any links on the project website that might encourage 
non-developers to download and use nightly builds, snapshots, release 
candidates, or any other similar package."
