That would be great.

Note that the timing is somewhat trickier than for the website.
In general it is not possible to recreate the contents of the
dist/commons area, so it's vitally important that no-one tries to
upload at the same time as infra do the conversion.

Otherwise files may get lost forever.

When I did JMeter and HttpComponents it took a week or so for the
request to be processed.
So we had to choose a time between releases.

An alternative would be for infra to do the upload and switch:

1) announce intention to convert in a few hours
2) set dist/commons so it cannot be written by commons RMs
3) copy entire dist/commons contents to SVN
4) perform the switch, which will replace the contents of dist/commons
5) announce conversion complete

There's a stage that ought to be done by Commons first:

0) remove any obsolete releases
