Hi all,

Do you know where the release metadata we supply in:

https://reporter.apache.org/addrelease.html

is stored?

I am planning to use it to generate some versioning guides for Apache projects, like the "Supported versions" page in Airflow[1].

For simple projects that follow semantic versioning and have a single development line, this should be enough to:

* tell users that all updates (including security updates) to a minor version (e.g. 1.10.x) cease once the next minor version is released.

* tell users that security updates to a major version (e.g. 1.x) cease after some reasonable time from the release of the next major version.

In a second phase I plan to allow PMCs to override the automatically generated data in their DOAP files, by extending the Apache DOAP ontology.

The ultimate goal is to generate machine-readable metadata that security scanners could use to tell users that:

* commons-ognl is incubating (not ready for production),

* Log4j 1.x is EOL and even security reports are no longer accepted.

* Log4j 2.23.x is EOL, will never see a new release, but security reports are accepted and will be published. Security updates will of course be published as Log4j 2.24.x.

* Aurora effectively reached EOL in February 2020.
