Mirrors seem to be missing older versions of Tomcat project

I was looking through the mirrors this morning and noted that they seem to be missing other versions of tomcat except for the newest published version.  For example http://www-us.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-7/ only contains 7.0.90 rather than older published versions. Other examples seem to be similar. 

Running a wget returned back a 404 for version 7.0.88:

 I didn't know if this was by design, and if so were can I find that information or if I should reach out to the tomcat mailing list to see if this was a recent change from that project.

Posted by Daniel Gruno <hu...@apache.org>.
Mirrors (should) only have the latest version of software.
For older versions, you should look at archive.apache.org

With regards,
Daniel.
