Archiving releases

Hi all,

We are not following the official Apache guidelines on archiving releases:

http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#archival

"Each project's distribution directory
<http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution#dist-dir> SHOULD contain
the latest release in each branch that is currently under development. When
development ceases on a version branch, releases of that branch SHOULD be
removed."

We currently list all of the available Knox releases on the main dist site:

http://www.apache.org/dist/knox/

Really we should be "svn rm"ing all of the existing releases here apart
from 0.14.0. All releases are of course archived here anyway for posterity:

http://archive.apache.org/dist/knox/

Colm.

Interesting, Colm.

I do think that the SHOULD language provides us room to leave them there.
I can accept it as a low priority task to clean it up though.
