It's still available in archive at http://archive.apache.org/dist/hadoop/core/. I can put it back on the main download site if desired, but the model is that the main download site is for stuff we actively want people to download. Here is the relevant quote from http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease , under the "Publishing" section:
3. The release directory usually contains just two releases, the most recent from two branches, with a link named 'stable' to the most recent recommended version. Quite a few more than two versions have accumulated, because more than two branches are active. But within the Hadoop-1 set I've tried to keep it minimal. Since 1.2.1 was accepted as a "stable" release, I saw no reason to keep 1.1.2, since we'd rather people downloaded 1.2.1. When 1.3.0 is produced, since it will be "beta" quality, 1.2.1 will of course remain as the "stable" version. --Matt On Mon, Aug 5, 2013 at 9:43 AM, Chris K Wensel <ch...@wensel.net> wrote: > any particular reason the 1.1.2 releases were pulled from the mirrors (so > quickly)? > > On Aug 4, 2013, at 2:08 PM, Matt Foley <ma...@apache.org> wrote: > > > I'm happy to announce that Hadoop version 1.2.1 has passed its release > vote > > and is now available.
