My apologies I grabbed the wrong link form the Maintenance article. Here is the proper link: https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/docs/services. I do not have access rights to it with my committer karma. If logging in with your ldap creds is not enough you will need to talk to infra. Regards Keith
