These pages attempt to list all resources and information related to the ASF development infrastructure. It contains information aimed at developers, committers, release managers, pmc members and infrastructure volunteers.
Please contribute to their improvement. If you cannot find your answers here, then please ask on your project mailing lists. There are many experienced ASF people there to help.
The content is categorized below. Alternatively, this sitemap summarizing all information available.
Committers and Contributors
Project Management Committees (PMC)
All requests for Infrastructure assistance need to be sure that the relevant project PMC is involved. In fact the PMCs can handle many Infrastructure items for themselves.
Licenses and other legal stuff

Releases
Software distribution and mirroring
Bad mirrors are automatically removed from the rotation of "preferred" mirrors. If a mirror stays bad for more than a couple of weeks, it is usually removed permanently. So, there is no need to post helpful mail to infrastructure when a mirror is down.
Machines and Services
Machines List Services List Public Host and Service Status - ASF Infra has already been automatically alerted if a service is down. This page is for your comfort. Refer to the machines list.
Issue tracking
Each project uses their own issue tracker. There is no standard, so visit each project website to find which one they use.
Infrastructure uses JIRA for task management and issue tracking. To request changes to an issues tracking system (for example, to request that a project be added), see How to report issues and request project resources

Mailing Lists
See notes about expectations, subscription instructions, nettiquette, etc. for all mailing lists. See Public Forum Archive Policy. Each project has their own project mailing lists. There are some other non-project lists (e.g. legal-discuss@ and community@ and various announcement lists). There are various Infrastructure mailing lists (e.g. infrastructure@ for reporting issues and site-dev@ for management of various top-level websites). Privacy notes about non-public lists and about balancing confidentiality and public discussion.
