I don't think the symbolic links are very useful. They are certainly not necessary, and it's easy for them to get out of date. If a mirror is set up correctly, they do work, however anyone downloading from the symbolic link will see the file as commons-dbutils-current-bin.zip rather than commons-dbutils-1.5-bin.zip (for example). > Thanks > Oliver > > [1] http://wiki.apache.org/commons/UsingNexus > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
