Plan to retire Jackrabbit 2.18 branch

Hi there,

I plan to retire ("end of life") the 2.18 branch of Jackrabbit on 
December 1.

Citing <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-4552>:

> Users of 2.18 should switch to the latest stable release of 2.20 (note that 2.20 doesn't have jackrabbit-api anymore, it has been replaced by oak-jackrabbit-api; the current version applicable to Jackrabbit 2.20.2 is 1.34.0)
> 
> What it'll mean in actual actions:
> 
>     links will be removed from the download page
>     news will be posted on the homepage
>     [announce] will be sent to jr-user, jr-dev, oak-dev
>     branch and tags WILL stay there
>     issues labeled "candidate_jcr_2_18" will be re-labeled "candidate_jcr_2_16"
> 
> See also http://jackrabbit.apache.org/jcr/downloads.html

Feedback appreciated,

Julian

Hearing no objections, I will proceed with this today...
