We have added excludes = *.md5 *.MD5 to our server config file for apache-site and apache-dist. Veryifying against a signature from the mirrors may give a false sense of security. We prefer that downloaders get the signature from a different source. 2. While we have long asked mirrors to supply up to 10GB of space, I see the total size of apache-dist will soon surpass that. I will try to get our projects to do some cleanup, but in the medium term, mirrors can probably expect apache-dist to grow to the 15 to 20GB range as more projects are added and as more projects choose to distribute consolidated releases including many dependencies. Please let us know (either on this list, or in the issue tracker at http://issues.apache.org/jira/) if you see any problems. Joshua. Apache Software Foundation -- Joshua Slive joshua@slive.ca
