I'm OK with a different layout. Gary -------- Original message -------- From: sebb <seb...@gmail.com> Date: 06/21/2015 17:09 (GMT-08:00) To: dev@commons.apache.org Subject: [ALL] re-organise dist directory layout?
I wonder whether the current directory layout is the most convenient. At present, binaries and source are held in separate areas, and all versions of each type are combined. I think it might simplify matters to use a single directory per version, with both source and binary together. The current arrangement makes it a bit awkward when uploading the files, as the different files have to be moved into the appropriate folders. It also makes it awkward to delete obsolete versions, and harder to rename files from the dist/dev to the dist/release area. It's also a bit more awkard when checking releases, as two directorie have to be downloaded. Changing the mirror layout would not affect people using the download pages. It would look a bit different for users who browse the mirror folders, but this will be a small minority of users, and it's pretty easy to distinguish the source archives from the binary ones.
