Obsolete http://xml.apache.org/mirrors.cgi

[Tetsuya Kitahata <ki...@terra-intl.com>]

Hi,

Why is http://xml.apache.org/mirrors.cgi obsolete?

I mean, how can we get *new* binaries and sources
of xml.apache.org products? Due to the lack of the
comprehension of the updates @ mirrors.html?

Thanks,

Either it's rarely updated (obviously), or only
updated by teams that remember it.  Usually, one goes
to the precise web page (Xerces, Xalan, FOP, etc.) for
the SW  wanted and follows the instructions from
there.

FOP, at least, doesn't appear to be getting many
complaints about this.

Many/Most of XML Apache's projects are becoming TLP's
on their own.  We're perhaps not as closely tied
together as the Jakarta teams.  Best to just go to the
web page of the specific product you wish to download.

HTH,
