Description:
Hello folks!

I was trying to inspect some code, and tried to follow advise from https://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-router/8.0/en/mysql-router-installation-source-code.html which reads

> To compile MySQL Router, download the MySQL Server source code from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql. Alternatively, git clone mysql-server on GitHub.

But in the downloads page there is now source code package, and the Github tree was abandoned around 8.0.12:

> This repository has been archived by the owner on Oct 24, 2018. It is now read-only.

Did license changed and I missed that, or is there a packaging issue and the source tarballs fail to be posted to the downloads page? :-|

Thanks!

How to repeat:
Check https://downloads.mysql.com/archives/router/ and verify that after 8.0.12 there is no "Source Code" option in the pull down menu.

Go to https://github.com/mysql/mysql-router and verify no commits after 8.0.12.

Suggested fix:
Post the code somewhere...please? :)
