Apache Incubator distribution directory

The directories listed below contain current releases from Apache Incubator projects ("podlings"). Older releases are archived.

To find the complete download and installation instructions and other information for a particular project, start at the project's own webpage. Find them via Incubator projects listing, rather than browsing the directories below.

Important notices

Each Apache Incubator podling is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.

Please visit and contribute to Incubator projects and assist them to mature.

Verify md5sums and PGP/GPG signatures of all downloaded artefacts.

    <h2 id="verify">Verify downloaded artefacts</h2>
    <p>
      It is essential that you verify the integrity of the downloaded files
      using the MD5 and PGP signatures. MD5 verification ensures the file was
      not corrupted or tampered with. PGP verification ensures that the file
      came from a certain person.
    </p>
    <p>
      Each project will probably have its own instructions on its download page.
      If not, then the following notes will help.
    </p>
    <h3 id="pgp">PGP signature</h3>
    <p>
      The PGP signatures can be verified using
      <a href="http://www.pgpi.org/">PGP</a> or
      <a href="http://www.gnupg.org/">GPG</a>. First download the project's
      <code>KEYS</code> file as well as the
      <code>*.asc</code> signature file for the particular artefact. It is
      important that you get these files from the ultimate trusted source - the
      main ASF distribution site, rather than from a mirror. Then verify the
      signatures using ...
    </p>
    <pre>
% pgpk -a KEYS
% pgpv apache-podling-X.Y-incubating-src.tar.gz.asc

<em>or</em>

% pgp -ka KEYS
% pgp apache-podling-X.Y-incubating-src.tar.gz.asc

<em>or</em>

% gpg --import KEYS
% gpg --verify apache-podling-X.Y-incubating-src.tar.gz.asc
</pre>

    <h3 id="md5">MD5 checksum</h3>
    <p>
      To verify the MD5 checksum on the files, you need to use a program called
      <code>md5</code> or <code>md5sum</code>, which is included in many unix
      distributions. It is also available as part of
      <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/textutils.html">GNU
      Textutils</a>. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from
      <a
href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/">here</a>,
      <a
href="http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/freeware/console/">here</a>, or
      <a href="http://www.slavasoft.com/fsum/">here</a> or an openssl client
      from
      <a href="http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html">here</a>.
    </p>
    <pre>
% md5sum apache-podling-X.Y-incubating-src.tar.gz
... output should match the string in apache-podling-X.Y-incubating-src.tar.gz.md5
</pre>
    <p>
      We strongly recommend that you verify your downloads with both PGP and MD5.
