Arne Ton updated XERCESC-2082:
------------------------------
    Description: As a windows user (software developer) I'd like to verify my 
Xerces download archive, this is also said on Apache website. However, the 
explanation on how to do it is incomprehensible for a normal guy like me 
without enough qualifications in Nerdish. I have successfully validated 
downloads from other sources.   (was: Vulnerabilities were reported to the 
project that led to the discovery of several buffer overflows.

The issue was publically disclosed as CVE-2016-0729)

> Xerces download verification impossible
