Comment (by robe):

 We had discussions about this at the SAC meeting today with

 jodygarnett, markusN, jef, dbb expressing their needs and concerns.

 Key takeaways from the meeting about new download

 1) Make sure to maintain timestamps and permissions as part of the sync
 2) Maintain sudos
 3) The size of osgeo4w + qgis (both users of the NFS) together take up
 about 100GB, so we could move these back in the folder and dispense with
 the NFS

 3) Geotools currently relies on WebDav for pushing artifacts so will need
 that

 OR - an interesting idea Jody Garnett brought up is they would like to
 eventually switch to using something like artifactory / nexus

 https://jfrog.com/open-source/

 and this might be something that would be useful for other projects.

 With that said - might be good to keep download.osgeo.org simple with just
 the nginx I have installed and no WebDav and setup a separate container
 for artifactory use that geotools can use and other projects can
 eventually take advantage of.

 jodygarnett proposed a domain name of repos.osgeo.org
