There is a new "nightly" release at http://cvs.apache.org/dist/soap/nightly/2004-04-07/.
Folks - a gentle nudge:- try to avoid calling those things things 'releases'.
They aint.
They are just developer convenience snapshots. Releases are:
-> official distributions of the ASF
-> have gone through an explicit peer reviewed process with
due announcement.-> And to prove the above we have the required +1
votes of multiple commiters on file in our repository.-> Are tagged as such in CVS so we can go back
easily should there be claims.Whereas the tarball above is an uncontrolled snapshot to aid developers and collaborators.
The difference is important as the ASF is on the hook for its official releases/distributions - and in order to protect developers from each other; and allow the ASF to protect the developers we must show oversight and due process when creating those releases.
That aside from the fact that a significant reason for the ASFs its market
share/popularity is the consistently high quality and predictability - which
can directly be attributed to the fact that we do do peer review and
oversight; and that it we're not a collection of one mans shops.
