Guys,
I just updated the download page magic because Infra made a major change in the way download scripts work last night. As I was doing this, I noticed that someone ripped out the logic that made the site offer downloads from our closest mirror instead of *straight out of the repository*. How many times do I have to explain that we do *not* tell people to download our releases straight off the ASF infrastructure? Why do you think ASF Infra goes to all the trouble to maintain mirror lists and geoip-aware scripting to make automatic (and manual) mirror selection possible? Whoever did this, please put the logic for automatic and manual mirror selection back, preferably yesterday. -- Brane |
Brane,
I have fixed it. The reason it was pointing to the apache repo is because the download mirrors were broken for several days during the graduation upgrade, and while the INFRA issues were resolved, we had to redirect the downloads to the main repo. Another weird issue I noticed now is that there are only 2 mirrors listed. Is this the way it is supposed to be now? D.

Ah, I remember now; thanks for the reminder. > Another weird issue I noticed now is that there are only 2 mirrors listed. > Is this the way it is supposed to be now? You probably saw Gavin's mail to committers@. I'm guessing Infra's first priority is getting the mirror service working again. -- Brane > On Tue, Sep 1, 2015 at 12:36 AM, Branko Čibej <[hidden email]> wrote: > >> Guys, >> >> I just updated the download page magic because Infra made a major change >> in the way download scripts work last night. >> >> As I was doing this, I noticed that someone ripped out the logic that >> made the site offer downloads from our closest mirror instead of >> *straight out of the repository*. >> >> How many times do I have to explain that we do *not* tell people to >> download our releases straight off the ASF infrastructure?
