Jan Høydahl commented on LUCENE-7696:
-------------------------------------
Yea, looks like the archive normally stays as-is, and that's fine I guess,
People only go there if they explicitly look for old versions. For the archive
I'll follow-up with Nutch to ask if they want to write a few words on their
download site about the oldest releases being found in the lucene area.
I'll rewrite the issue description to focus on the dist area and the mirrors
that people normally see, e.g. http://www.apache.org/dist/lucene/
Here, hadoop is no longer there, but mahout, nutch and tika folders are
{{.htaccess}} redirects. Assuming these are no longer needed, I plan to remove
them.

> In https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/ we have these folders:
> {noformat}
> [DIR] hadoop/ 2008-01-22 23:40 -
> [DIR] java/ 2017-02-14 08:33 -
> [DIR] mahout/ 2015-02-17 20:27 -
> [DIR] nutch/ 2015-02-17 20:29 -
> [DIR] pylucene/ 2017-02-13 22:00 -
> [DIR] solr/ 2017-02-14 08:33 -
> [DIR] tika/ 2015-02-17 20:29 -
> [ ] KEYS 2016-08-30 09:59 148K
> {noformat}
> Nobody will expect to find hadoop, mahout, nutch and tika here anymore, so
> why not clean up?
> I double checked, and both https://archive.apache.org/dist/hadoop/core/ and
> https://archive.apache.org/dist/mahout/ have a full copy of all releases, so
> we lose nothing.
> For https://archive.apache.org/dist/nutch/, they do not have 0.6-0.8 releases
> that we have under lucene, and https://archive.apache.org/dist/tika/ do not
> have v0.2-0.7 that only exists with us. For these two projects we could ask
> their PMC to copy over the early versions and then we nuk'em?
> Any other reason to keep these in the lucene area?
