Done
du tells me we're now using 165Mb - the largest users of the space are 5
java management console tars (qpid-jmx-management-console-*) each of
which takes about 13-14Mb and the combined source tree tar at 56Mb.

Makes sense to me - I'll do it tomorrow if you haven't done it already.

I agree. I removed all the older releases when previously asked. However
at that time we hadn't yet released 0.10 so I left 0.8 as the current
release.
I think we just need to change the release process to include deletion
of the last release to avoid this building up again.

Given that we dont actually link to the 0.8 files on the mirrors from
our download page, and they will still available from the archive area
which is linked for the purpose of getting older releases, I'd say we
should just remove 0.8 from the mirrors if it will appease infra.

I've now looked at /dist and I don't think we've got anything to clean
up there - We've got only 2 releases up there 0.10 and 0.8. Which is the
current and previous release. I think it is reasonable to have them both
there.
When we release 0.12 then we should remove 0.8. If we released 0.10.1 it
would be the latest version of the current release and we should remove
0.10.
Any other opinions?

As far as I know everyone who has an account on people.apache.org has
access to /dist.
I'll take a look at /dist and see what should be deleted.
