Re: Artemis past releases page breakages
It would appear that this problem has occurred again. The past releases
page was partially updated but in all cases the updates were incorrect and
now the download links are broken. The links to the all broker release
archives themselves point to Apache Archives but the action=download bit at
the end of the URI was not removed. The links to the checksums and
signatures were not updated to point to archives it seems and so those are
also broken.

I did take extra care and I looked on the last release by double checking
it.
What’s wrong?

As more of an aside, it isnt really necessary to make any of those
changes and risk getting it wrong like this...just copy the previous
entry on the past releases page and find+replace the version numbers
in that with your text editor of choice, done.
