Hi all,

some of the general discussion recently made me wonder about one point with regards to binary distributions. It was pointed out, that a binary distribution of a source code release has to be handled like a release itself, and that there should be no download source of it outside of apache. This seems to be one motivation for the asf having its own maven repository.

I seem to misunderstand something here, or why can there be apache maven artifacts in maven central and package in linux distributions for for example httpd, if this policy is followed? I mean it was even suggested to use the trademark to forbid the distribution through third parties. I am quite irritated about this.

bye blackdrag
