Sebb created CONNECTORS-1663:
--------------------------------
Summary: Use shared KEYS file
Key: CONNECTORS-1663
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1663
Project: ManifoldCF
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sebb
The canonical location for a KEYS file is at the top level of the distribution
directory.
i.e.
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/manifoldcf/KEYS
which is published at
https://downloads.apache.org/manifoldcf/
However for some reason each release has its own KEYS file, for example:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/manifoldcf/apache-manifoldcf-1.10/apache-manifoldcf-1.10.KEYS
As far as I can tell, the above file contains all the keys which are present in
any of the other existing KEYS files.
Would it not be a lot simpler to drop the individual KEYS files in favour of a
single KEYS file at the top level?
This would mean a one-time change to the download pages to update the KEYS link.
Something to consider for future releases at least.
