Hi, I just wondered why some download links point to [https://download.elasticsearch.org](https://download.elasticsearch.org) instead of [http://download.elastic.co](http://download.elastic.co) for the new 5.0 alpha builds? Is this intended and will this be the new URL pattern? I ask because the firewall at work will allow downloads from [http://download.elastic.co](http://download.elastic.co) (like in the past) but not from [https://download.elasticsearch.org](https://download.elasticsearch.org) . Of course manually rewriting the URL helps for now. But if the pattern will change, I will have to talk to networks dpt. again... ---

sorry, I missed to include links, my bad ☹ Followed these links: [https://www.elastic.co/v5](https://www.elastic.co/v5) [https://www.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch) (scroll down to 5.x) ZIP Download -\> [https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/distribution/zip/elasticsearch/5.0.0-alpha3/elasticsearch-5.0.0-alpha3.zip](https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/distribution/zip/elasticsearch/5.0.0-alpha3/elasticsearch-5.0.0-alpha3.zip) and [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/v5.0.0-alpha3-docs/installing-xpack.html#xpack-installing-offline](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/v5.0.0-alpha3-docs/installing-xpack.html#xpack-installing-offline) refers to it, too ---

This will be fixed shortly. Note that you can use the [elastic.co](http://elastic.co) domain instead: [https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/distribution/zip/elasticsearch/5.0.0-alpha3/elasticsearch-5.0.0-alpha3.zip](https://download.elastic.co/elasticsearch/release/org/elasticsearch/distribution/zip/elasticsearch/5.0.0-alpha3/elasticsearch-5.0.0-alpha3.zip) ---
