Thanks for starting this thread and thanks a lot for verifying the download
page for a lot of podlings!

For previewing a staging website, with .asf.yaml config, there is a way [1]
to do so self-served by any (P)PMC. And I agree that we should spread such
practices to every project.

[1]
https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-asfyaml/blob/main/README.md#staging-a-web-site-preview-domain

For example, to recommend every project's verifying release docs (like [2])
have a check item to verify the (staged) download page. And instruct the RM
to build such a staged page.

Best,
tison.
