Release download pages

2018-05-31 Thread Craig Russell
Hi,

FYI, the download pages are fine except for one issue. MD5 is no longer 
recommended for checksums, and SHA is required. 

Announcements of Apache project releases must contain a link to the relevant 
download page. [1]
The download page must provide public download links where current official 
source releases and accompanying cryptographic files may be obtained. [2]

Announcements that contain a link to the dyn/closer page alone will be rejected 
by the moderators.

Announcements that contain a link to a web page that does not include a link to 
a mirror to the artifact plus links to the signature and at least one sha 
checksum will be rejected.

[2] https://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#download-links

This advice is for the next release...

Regards,

Craig

Hello Apache Supporters and Enthusiasts

This is a reminder that our Apache EU Roadshow in Berlin is less than 
two weeks away and we need your help to spread the word. Please let your 
work colleagues, friends and anyone interested in any attending know 
about our Apache EU Roadshow event.


We have a great schedule including tracks on Apache Tomcat, Apache Http 
Server, Microservices, Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud Technologies. 
You can find more details at the link below:

Ticket prices will be going up on 8^th June 2018, so please make sure 
that you register soon if you want to beat the price increase. 
https://foss-backstage.de/tickets


Remember that registering for the Apache EU Roadshow also gives you 
access to FOSS Backstage so you can attend any talks and workshops from 
both conferences. And don’t forget that our Apache Lounge will be open 
throughout the whole conference as a place to meet up, hack and relax.


We look forward to seeing you in Berlin!

Thanks
Sharan Foga,  VP Apache Community Development
