New Revision: 1561614
URL: http://svn.apache.org/r1561614
Log:
Update the main download page to bring it into line with ASF requirements: make the main download links go through a mirror script, and add links to PGP signatures and MD5/SHA1 hashes (on the main server).

+<p>Verify the integrity of the files:</p>
+ <blockquote>
+
+ It is essential that you verify the integrity of the downloaded files
+ using the PGP or MD5 signatures.
+
+ The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First download the
+ <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/perl/KEYS">KEYS file</a> as well as
+ the asc signature file for the relevant distribution. Make sure you get
+ these files from the <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/perl/">main
+ distribution directory</a>, rather than from a mirror. Then verify the
+ signatures using
+
+ <pre>
+ % pgpk -a KEYS
+ % pgpv mod_perl-2.0.8.tar.gz.asc
+ <i>or</i>,
+ % pgp -ka KEYS
+ % pgp mod_perl-2.0.8.tar.gz.asc
+ <i>or</i>,
+ % gpg --import KEYS
+ % gpg --verify mod_perl-2.0.8.tar.gz.asc
+ </pre>
+
+ Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files. A unix
+ program called <code>md5</code> or <code>md5sum</code> is included in
+ many unix distributions. It is also available as part of <a
+ href="http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/textutils.html">GNU
+ Textutils</a>. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from <a
+ href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/">here</a>, <a
+ href="http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/freeware/console/">here</a>, or
+ <a href="http://www.slavasoft.com/fsum/">here</a>. An MD5 signature
+ consists of 32 hex characters, and a SHA1 signature consists of 40 hex
+ characters. Ensure your generated signature string matches the signature
+ string published in the files above.
