Re: nutch downloads

Joshua,

We have received your message.  I'm only remotely involved with  
Nutch, so I'm prodding other committers to Nutch to please update the  
links to take advantage of the mirroring system in place.

Please - someone reply back volunteering to correct this ASAP.

     Erik

My bad.  I'm fixing this right now.  In 24 hours all Nutch downloads 
should be through the mirrors.

Sorry!

Looks good.  Thanks for the quick response.  A couple things to work on:

1. Unless you believe that users should be downloading versions .6 and 
.7, you should rm them and add a link to
http://archive.apache.org/dist/lucene/nutch/

2. For the future, you should work towards a download.cgi-style download 
page so that you can properly send requests for the signatures to 
www.apache.org while directing the main downloads to the mirrors.

Joshua.

Oops.  Those redirected urls should be:

http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/release/
http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/release/nightly/

Note that nightly releases are not mirrored, per Apache policy.

Okay.  All nutch downloads should now be through mirrors.

The web site now refers to downloads through the url:

http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/lucene/nutch/

The former download urls now redirect to the appropriate places:

http://lucene.apache.org/lucene/nutch/release/
http://lucene.apache.org/lucene/nutch/release/nightly/

All releases are signed.

Doug
