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

Ok, tomorrow Tuesday I plan to
 * Remove {{latest-redir.html}} for both Lucene and Solr
 * List both latest 8.x.x and 7.x.x releases on the download pages of both 
Lucene and Solr (and remove all other versions from mirrors, SOLR-13498)
 * Use https instead of http on the download links
 * Use https for the link to Apache archives links

For Solr I'm also considering a (non-versioned) link to ref-guide on the 
download page, what do others think?

> The direct download page [1] currently redirects to the mirror system [2] 
> after a few seconds.
> I think that is wrong; users should be encouraged to verify the downloads, 
> but the redirect makes verification harder.
> The normal download page [3] is OK.
