Hoss Man commented on SOLR-1999:
--------------------------------

bq. It is not appropriate to mention non-released code on the official page for 
releases.

why?

i can (moderately) understand that we should not "encourage" non-devleopers to 
use unofficial versions, and i recognize that linking directly to nightlys from 
the "official" release page is a very bad idea .. but how far down the rabbit 
hole do we have to go to avoid links to links to links to links for nightly 
builds?

Even following the letter of the policy you linked to, i don't see how we 
anyone could possibly construe that we are "encourage(ing) non-developers to 
download and use nightly builds, snapshots, release candidates, or any other 
similar package"
