Hi David,

I don’t understand why this “entry-point” exists? Why is this not just the default behaviour? It seems to cover all cases, and would mean there is no need for this “jdf” element in the URL, and we can just copy and paste URLs between places.

Also, I can confirm the bug report that the “jdf” urls are not working for the short URLs. I used e.g. (copied from your MOJO page)

curl -v -L -H "Authorization: Basic xxxx" https://www.jboss.org/download-manager/jdf/file/jboss-datavirt-6.0.0.GA-source.zip > out.bin

Which gives "File /file/jboss-datavirt-6.0.0.GA-source.zip was not found in the system.” but works fine in a web browser, or the provided long URL.

I cloned the JDF issue to https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ORG-2235
