[Axis2] misplaced releases...?

i've noticed a few little issues whilst developing the download script.

1 the 0.91 war distribution is misplaced (needs to be in
www.apache.org/dist so that it can be mirrored) and lacks signature
and a checksum.

2 the 0.9 release is no longer present in www.apache.org/dist and so
the links are broken.

3 the M1 war distribution was misplaced (should have been in
cvs.apache.org/dist) and is now missing.


i can see some options (but would be glad for people to jump in with
better ones):

1 i can either remove this from the download page or the owner could
create signatures and sums (from the *local* version please, not the
apache one) and move the war into the release directory

2 could be removed from the release document or the link replaced with
one to the archives

3 probably easiest just to remove the link

what's it to be?

i've created a JIRA: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-162
implementing this. i've added quite full descriptions (so i'll be
brief on list).

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-163 is a small patch for
another little issue i spotted.

#1, Please pull the war. let's not distribute it.
#2, Please point to archive for 0.9
(http://archive.apache.org/dist/ws/axis2/0_9/)
#3, Let's remove references to M1 and its war from our web site.
