Yeah, I find this a bit confusing too. The ibiblio repository
distribution policy is unrelated to Apache's. No one is making any
claims on ibiblio about the licensing (other than its freely
distributable)/community/etc - I mean, come on, there are
sourceforge binaries on there! :-)
Also, Guillaume makes a good point, anybody create upload requests
for ibiblio. Why couldn't I go make an upload request for any of
the incubating projects? You don't have to be a project
coordinator to get jars uploaded. It only needs to be a freely
distributable binary.
I'm +1 to creating the repositories and its a very necessary first
step, but I think things should go further.
I think in terms of physical separation on Apache infrastructure
this is a good thing so that we could run the repository manager on
that separate repository to get stats on incubator artifact
activity. Project using Maven in the incubator can specify a set of
repositories to use so it wouldn't be onerous to have artifacts be
pulled from the incubator repository. But I honestly don't think
there is much downside in syncing to Ibiblio but I suppose that is
a decision for the Incubator PMC to decide. That is probably the
thing to clear up.
Those are some good points.
Thinking of the projects that I have in incubation at the current
time, I get a little sinking feeling in my stomach at the thought
they could be out of wide-spread distribution for a year.

What is the real purpose of such a repository if it is not synced

What if a user of an incubating project create an upload request ?
There's no reason why Apache internal policies would affect such
a request.
AFAIK, Ibiblio repository is not owned by the ASF ...

Noel, shall I go ahead and create the above? They get my +1
from a
repository@ point of view.
Pinging on this to make sure the Incubator is happy with the idea
before I set it up.
