Hi,
The attic'ed projects can't be on the mirrors forever, imho.
A cleanup after, say, 6 months seems reasonable.
Cleanup was done for (for instance) 'beehive' like this :
the 'dist/beehive/' directory is stripped, containing only
a .htaccess file with :
RedirectMatch permanent .* http://attic.apache.org/projects/beehive.html
The same can be done for other projects.
At the moment, candidates are : harmony and jakarta,
since the were attic'ed at least half a year ago.
Of course, these pages:
http://attic.apache.org/projects/harmony.html
http://attic.apache.org/projects/jakarta.html
should contain a reference to relevant archive.apache.org page,
as for instance the beehive attic page does.
Please make it the rule to cleanup attic'ed projects after six months.
I'll be happy to do the cleanup and set the proper .htaccess files.
Please let me know.
Regards,
Henk Penning -- apache.org infrastructure

Hi,
thanks Henri.
-- I have stripped dist/harmony to a .htaccess pointing to
http://attic.apache.org/projects/harmony.html
-- same for 'jakarta'
-- thanks for adding this to the attic 'process page'.

HPP

Sounds good to me.
I'm +1.
(Though currently unable to change the website content as SVN and I
disagree on my password. Oddly people.apache.org has taken my side in
the argument).
