Hi all,

due to the migration to Mirrorbrain as our new OOo download service and therefore to simplify maintainance we have changed the file name policy. Some improvements:

* The version of dev builds is no longer separated by a "_" to get rid
  of a wrong separator.
* Consolidated the "Intel" and "x86" ARCH into "x86" only, also to
  separate better against "x86-64".
* Renamed the "Win32" OS into "Win" as the ARCH addition which is
  following defines the architecture already.
* The "OS" and "ARCH" parts are also separated by an "_" (underscore).
* Using the "install-arc" install type for CWS builds of type "archive".
* JRE and Linux deb/rpm builds are put together with the install type to
  get rid of this optional part.
* There is no default package for Linux. The install type "install-deb"
  or "install-rpm" is always added.
* There is no default language. All install sets include a lang code.

The full policy can be found here:

This will result to changed filenames in the mirror sub-structure.

Examples for the known old naming:

OOo-Dev_OOO310_m17_Win32Intel_install_de.exe
OOo-Dev_DEV310_m54_LinuxIntel_install.tar.gz
OOo-Dev_DEV310_m54_LinuxIntel_langpack.tar.gz
OOo_3.1.1_MacOSXIntel_install_de.tar.gz
OOo_3.1.1_Solarisx86_install_wJRE.tar.gz

Examples for the new naming:

OOo-Dev_OOO320m7_Win_x86_install_de.exe
OOo-Dev_DEV300m70_Linux_x86_install-rpm_en-US.tar.gz
OOo-Dev_DEV300m70_Linux_x86_langpack-rpm_en-US.tar.gz
OOo_3.2.0_MacOS_x86_install_de.exe
OOo_3.2.0_Solaris_x86_install-wJRE_en-US.tar.gz

It is planned to integrate the changes within the next 1-2 milestones. So, if you think you are affected by this change and see obstacles please drop me a mail.

Thanks for your attention.

Best regards

Marcus
