It appears that version 17.0.0 wasn't released properly. The page is unable to load (https://maven.google.com/web/index.html#com.google.firebase:firebase-appdistribution:17.0.0) and I get errors both locally and on CI when I attempt to download.

Hi @joshafeinberg, thank you for reaching out. Currently, the latest version of Firebase App Distribution is 16.0.0-beta12. You can check the latest versions and release notes from here.

The v17.0.0 might be a placeholder for the next version. However, I understand if this might be confusing. I'll notify our engineers about this and see what we can do here.

For now, I suggest using the version posted from our official release notes.

Hi @joshafeinberg thanks for your report.

Due to an internal error, a 17.0.0 artifact was pushed and later pulled from maven. We know this is a disruptive process and we are sorry. We are creating additional safeguards to prevent this from happening in the future.

Please, use 16.0.0-beta12 instead, as it's the latest version.

The invalid artifacts are no longer included in the maven index.
