Subject: Re: Public demo instance hosted by third party
Indeed I think the ASF VM should be our first priority. I'm talking about
a
temporary solution until then, not an advertising drive.
I recognise that this could be a slippery slope (regarding user
perception), but
I feel confident enough that the lack of slope (ie users) is more
important at
this point. Hopefully Gary's change to the ticket and comment will achieve
some progress.
I've got my eye on doing this rsn, just the backlog of projects jumping
last minute with the
svnpubsub/cms deadlines has kept us busy.
I will start the VM today.
what service urls do you want?
I suggest a machine (VM) name of bloodhound-vm2.a.o with service urls of
something like
bh-demo1.a.o , bh-demo2.a.o etc ?
The VM name is fine. I guess something like bh-demo-<name>.a.o might be
worth going for but I would also be happy to distinguish the demos with
something like bh-demo.a.o/<name>/
In case it is helpful to know now, the two demos we expect to start with
would probably be:
* current - the latest official release
* nightly - the current trunk, obviously rebuilt once a day
I think there was also a suggestion of having any upcoming release
demoed over the voting period, although we may have to balance any
benefit of that against the possibility that votes will be made only on
the basis of such a demo.
Cheers,
Gary
