download binaries (incl. hashes and signatures) from ASF Maven #55
Conversation

Why? My understanding is that this would prevent using the ASF mirrors for downloads. |

See https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r5ac69fcb1251aaad4b5c6e69e4784369c74bee0d13e3ffeb990e3e64%40%3Cdev.sling.apache.org%3E for a background. I don't think that a lot of people are downloading Sling Modules with other means than via Maven (with all its mirrors). |

Ok, I have commented on our dev list - I ask that you do not merge this PR for now, while we discuss there. I think it's good to use the ASF mirrors for all downloads and as mentioned there I don't really see the problem with svn. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We need to point to Maven Central instead
Projects must not point or refer to repository.apache.org directly in download pages, release announcements or emails. Instead, any public download links for those releases should point to Maven Central.
