+# Apache Trusted Releases
+
+The Apache Trusted Releases (ATR) platform performs two key functions:
+
+ - it simplifies the process of preparing and approving a PMC's release of code
+ - it strengthens security around the release process so that both the project releasing the code and the users downloading it can be confident that the package contains only what it should
+
+In August 2026, ATR is moving into **beta testing**. Its documentation during this period is available at release-test.apache.org/docs/introduction-to-atr.
+
+When ATR is in general availability, its documentation will be at releases.apache.org/docs/introduction-to-atr.

Every Apache Software Foundation project software release must meet requirements for content, process, and publication. These requirements ensure that Apache contributors and users benefit from appropriate legal protection the ASF provides, and reflect the Foundation's goals of open, collaborative software development.

- **How do I archive an old release?** `downloads.apache.org` is automatically archived every four hours. Therefore, a copy of every official release exists in the archives. Just delete the copy of the release that is in your project's dist directory. Remember to update any links from the download page related to that release.

+**Note**: if your project is using the [Apache Trusted Releases](atr.html) (ATR) platform, there is no delay in archiving older releases.
