Something is still not right between archive and latest dist.

Tomcat Native archive [1] contains old and the current release while Commons =
Daemon archive [2] only have past releases. I don't fully remember the policy=
, but either one is a problem. From downstream consumer (a.k.a package mainta=
iner) this is a problem. I prefer the former, of course.

What am I missing here?
