[jira] [Commented] (OPENJPA-2307) Download page must not advertise snapshot builds

["Kevin Sutter (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2307?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13529325#comment-13529325 ] 

Kevin Sutter commented on OPENJPA-2307:
---------------------------------------

The download links on this page are clearly separated based on Releases vs Nightly Snapshots.  The official releases are at the top of this page, and the nightly snapshots at the bottom of this page.  The nightly snapshot section clearly has this text:

     Nightly Snapshots

     These distributions are built and deployed nightly, and contain up-to-date fixes and improvements. However, their stability cannot be guaranteed. Use at your own risk.

The OpenJPA site has been formatted this way forever.  Although this JIRA is a nice suggestion, I don't see it as a bug that needs to be resolved.  Unless you are indicating that we're breaking some type of Apache rule, I don't see any reason to separate these downloads into separate pages.

> The download page http://openjpa.apache.org/downloads.html contains links to several snapshot builds.
> These presumably have not been voted on; as such they are not proper ASF releases and must not be advertised to the general public.
> They are only intended for use by developers and should only appear (if at all) in pages which are clearly for developers only.
