> ASF Infra has communicated
> "As of March 2020, we are deprecating www.apache.org/dist/ in favor of
> https://downloads.apache.org/ for backup downloads as well as signature
> and checksum verification. The primary driver has been splitting up web
> site visits and downloads to gain better control and offer a better
> service for both downloads and web site visits.
> As stated, this does not impact end-users, and should have a minimal
> impact on projects, as our download selectors as well as visits to
> www.apache.org/dist/ have been adjusted to make use of
> downloads.apache.org instead. We do however ask that projects, in their
> own time-frame, change references on their own web sites from
> www.apache.org/dist/ to downloads.apache.org wherever such references
> may exist, to complete the switch in full. We will NOT be turning off
> www.apache.org/dist/ in the near future, but would greatly appreciate if
> projects could help us transition away from the old URLs in their
> documentation and on their download pages.
> The standard way of uploading releases[1] will STILL apply, however
> there may be a short delay (<= 15 minutes) between releasing and
> releases showing up on downloads.apache.org for technical reasons.
> "
> We should adjust our website and if necessary our release scripts based on this
