[Daemon] release 1.2.4?

Hi all & markt,

Any thoughts on getting the recent fixes out in a release sooner rather
than later?

Rob,

Recall that this is a component that delivers not only a jar but also
OS-dependent binaries.

If the download page is fixed, it can point to that.

But the current link cannot remain.

Better to fix it to use the mirror system than remove it.

Re: [Daemon] release 1.2.4?

Posted by sebb <se...@gmail.com>.

AFAIK, we only provide the Windows binary (and the compiled Java jars).
Users are expected to compile the source to produce the Unix executable:

https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/binaries.html
and
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/jsvc.html

It looks like links to the Windows executable are missing from the
download page.
That would be good to fix, though I don't know how easy it would be to
persuade the commons build plugin to generate the correct links.
It may be necessary to manually edit the xml at least for now.

There's a link to the general binaries directory from the binaries
page, but that should be removed as users should not be encouraged to
download binaries directly from the ASF.
