The umask is what caused the problem. Your site is currently group read. Any MyFaces committer should be able to make changes to the site once the group perms are corrected. You need to request that change from root@ if matzew is not going to be back for a while.
I was confusing the reasons for why we couldn't update the website. Yes the problem in the website case is umask as you say. We're having a second problem which is we need to create directories in www.apache.org for the release. That does require apsite. Are you able to help us out with that so we can get the mirroring started? That would be helpful.
It looks like Noel got to that before I did. ;-)
However, now another interesting issue comes up. My understanding is that only official ASF releases are supposed to go into the dist directories, and only official ASF releases are supposed to be mirrored, unless an exceptional download volume is anticipated. This begs the question of whether MyFaces 1.0.9 is permitted to become an official ASF release, given that it has not passed the TCK.
I'm afraid I don't think I can help you resolve that one, although I feel it's important to raise. It might be worthwhile for you folks to have a conversation with some of the other folks who have to deal with TCK issues. The Geronimo folks come to mind, but I'm sure there are others.
