their status.

therefore (as a matter of policy) these releases should be made
available from within http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator but this is
not made clear in Incubator policy. here is a policy patch that makes
this clear:

AIUI most current releases are store elsewhere. i'm willing to perform
the necessary rationalisation work.

moving releases into dist does highlight issues about long term
availability and security of releases but i think that these are best
discussed in separate threads.

i'd like to ask the IPMC to approve this policy clarification.

here's my +1
