Subject: Re: Getting Maven component and plugin releases to /dist -- space

As far as I can determine, there should never be / should never have
been one of these items pushed to repository.apache.org except after a
full release vote. If a vote wasn't passed, the staging repo should
have been dropped, not released. As far as I am concerned, this whole
set are full, voted, releases that should have originally gone to
/dist (and thence to archive), and the only sorting out is between
dist and archive.

So, as I see it, the Maven PMC has now given infrastructure@ all the
information you need about the disk space demands of this bit of
retroactive release management. With the holiday upcoming, I'll wait
until 28 December for further comments or objections before
proceeding.

Hi Benson,

  sorry for being dense ; ..., but do you have a list handy
  showing which files you want to add to /dist/ and where?

    from -> to
    ...  -> dist/...

  Either all of them (including the ones really only destined
  for archive.a.o), or only the 'real', 'recent' stuff, or both.

  Just curious, are the .md5's and .asc's on these to-be-added
  artifacts included and checked for validity ?

  Thanks a lot, regards,

  HPP

The details are in additional files checked into the same directory.

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/project/tools/scrape-nexus-
releases/inventory.sizes

contains my attempt to inventory all the Maven releases that are on
repository.apache.org but are not on /dist.

The bottom line, literally, is 86221717 bytes -- not counting the detached
signature files.

Infra@, please let us know if this poses a problem; we won't actually check
anything into /dist before hearing from you (and taking care of some
organizational matters of our own).

I see beta versions in there, they don’t belong in dist.

Yes they do, they were formal, voted, legal, Apache releases, that
just happened to have 'beta' in their names.

I see multiple versions of the same product in there. Only the LATEST version 
of each
released product belongs in dist. (And certainly no need to be bothering mirrors
with outdated and since replaced versions.)

The 'archive' section of the policy needs to be complied with. If you
want to distinguish the disk space of the  two, I can.



You should recompile your list and total size based on removing the above.

I can certainly arrange subtraction of the items that need to just to
the archive.


We'll see what the situation is after that.

Gav...
