We used to keep one, but then we started having to maintain so many  
distros it became difficult. Plus, we can't have one on Sourceforge,  
and we were hoping to have our stats reflect on the amount of work  
we've been doing (we get 4000+ downloads a month).

Of course, after a 6 month wait, stats are broken again (although we  
were in the top 500 projects before it went down).

We're getting ready to migrate to a new server that I might be able  
to set up a repository on. Until then, the easiest way to install  
OpenNMS is on Debian (we have an apt-repo) or OSX via fink.

Please check out the install guide on Sourceforge. It is actually  
pretty complete. We also have Tomcat4 RPMs on the ftp server: ftp:// 
ftp.opennms.org/pub/dependencies.
