Thanks for the links.

Towards the repo policy, I quite well appreciate the reasons behind
that. However, I think it makes sense to tease apart what we (Commons)
should do, and what the repo maintainers should do.

As Niall originally suggested, I think we should remove the mentioned
artifacts from pao, if they still exist there. I think we should also
ping repository@, and inform folks there about the bad artifacts
(leaving further action to them as they see fit -- well,
alternatively, we could try to influence such policy, if anyone here
cared sufficiently enough to do so).
