Hi Chris, With my ASF member hat on...
Oh, come on, Chris. It's not "in violation of ASF policies" whatsoever. Policies are for ASF developers not for users. Honestly, I was surprised to read the note in Mark Hamstra's email. It's very restrictive but it says about what committers and PMCs should do not users: "Do not include any links on the project website that might encourage non-developers to download and use nightly builds, snapshots, release candidates, or any other similar package."
