@pingtimeout should we update the release workflow to
- "prematurely" push release artifacts to archive.a.o and
- purge previous releases from downloads.a.o in the final workflow?

No we should not push to archive: it's automatically sync with dist. However we can cleanup previous releases from dist.apache.org when a new release is promoted. We should also update the website to use archive.apache.org on previous releases. |

@jbonofre If I understand correctly, there should only be one version on the dist release SVN server? |

@pingtimeout yes, dist.apache.org (release space e.g. https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/polaris/) should contain only the latest release. |

@pingtimeout for instance https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/karaf/ you can see only the latest releases on each active branch. |
