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
