    Description

      Apache is asking to remove MD5 checksums from releases.

      Old policy:

      • MUST provide a MD5-file
      • SHOULD provide a SHA-file [SHA-512 recommended]

      New policy:

      • MUST provide a SHA- or MD5-file
      • SHOULD provide a SHA-file
      • SHOULD NOT provide a MD5-file

      Providing MD5 checksum files is now discouraged for new releases, but still allowed for past releases.

      Why this change:

      Impact for PMCs:

      • for new releases:
        • please do provide a SHA-file (one or more, if you like)
        • do NOT provide a MD5-file
