dist.apache.org - Lucene PGP KEYS files mm

Hi,

I noticed that in the release archives https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/ there are
several KEYS files (containing committer’s PGP public keys):

https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/KEYS              151109b  Tue, 30 Aug 2016  25 keys
https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/java/KEYS         128519b  Wed, 02 Oct 2013  23 keys
https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/KEYS         139586b  Tue, 30 Aug 2016  26 keys
https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/java/6.4.0/KEYS   224469b  Tue, 17 Jan 2017  30 keys
https://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/6.4.0/KEYS   224469b  Tue, 17 Jan 2017  30 keys

Seems kind of random when the various files get updated.

And why do we ever need more than the top /lucene/KEYS file? E.g. the Hadoop project maintains
only one top-level KEYS file http://www.apache.org/dist/hadoop/common/

Another difference in the download site is that http://www.apache.org/dist/lucene/java/
has a README.html displaying below, while http://www.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/ has a
HEADER.html showing above the list of downloads.

Finally, when can we get rid of /tika, /nutch and /mahout folders (redirects)? They clutter up things :)

I still think this is the best place, if:
- People also keep their historic GPG keys on the LDAP account
- There is a way to link the autogen'ed file from the website and its guaranteed to be there.

I think the Apache Infra Team should change id.apache.org that only adding of keys is possible with self-service. But removing old keys should be impossible for a non-admin or some extra crosschecks. If a key really needs to be deleted, it should happen with human interaction - ensuring it was not used anywhere (at least at Apache).

Keep in mind that things like the solr ref guide and pylucene releases 
don't do "per-release" KEY files, so completley eliminating those URLs 
would require a change to those process.

on the flip side: see Uwe's comment in that Jira questioning the rationale 
of snapshoting the KEY files per-release anyway, instead of just always 
using a continuously growing, automatically updated, KEYS file using LDAP 
as the source of truth.

I personally have no opinion, but agree the current situation is 
confusing.
