    Description

      The canonical location for a KEYS file is at the top level of the distribution directory.
      i.e.
      https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/manifoldcf/KEYS
      which is published at
      https://downloads.apache.org/manifoldcf/

      However for some reason each release has its own KEYS file, for example:
      https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/manifoldcf/apache-manifoldcf-1.10/apache-manifoldcf-1.10.KEYS

      As far as I can tell, the above file contains all the keys which are present in any of the other existing KEYS files.

      Would it not be a lot simpler to drop the individual KEYS files in favour of a single KEYS file at the top level?

      This would mean a one-time change to the download pages to update the KEYS link.

      Something to consider for future releases at least.
