> The download page has broken links for version 2.8.0
> It looks like the release was removed from the mirrors without updating the page to point to the archive server.
> To reduce the likelihood of broken links, it's best to allow some overlap between old and new releases, e.g.
> - publish new release (2.8.1) to dist.apache.org/release
> - wait a day or so for mirrors to catch up
> - update the download page to include the new release (2.8.1)
> - change the previous release (2.8.0) to link to the archive server
> - send the announce mail for the new release (2.8.1)
> - remove the previous release (2.8.0) from dist.apache.org/release
> This should minimise the chance of a user encountering a broken link.
