Hi Louis,
A long while ago, back in February, I asked about using Bouncer
for downloads. [0] There were some considered objections, [1] but
I think they may have been addressed since then.
So... Do the NLC leads still have objections to using Bouncer? If
yes, what are they? (Have they been communicated to the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] list?) If not, can I ask that you do so? As I
wrote before, Bouncer can help us track downloads. This may even
be so for projects whose primary pages are actually off the
CollabNet site, such as BR-PT: they can add their servers to the
Bouncer list.
from my perspective, there are two major problems with Bouncer:
- It does not support FTP downloads at all.
Okay.
- With the current interface, it seems to be problematic to add
some external products, like the German PrOOo-Box or the
OOoPortable. Defining a new set of mirrors, new products and
versions for that clutters the UI.
Don't know if these issues are being resolved. :-)
I don't know either. I will raise them with OSL. But I think as I
wrote to Joost and Andreas, we will have to use all data... The part
that bothers me is the intervention of manual labour: I think that
introduces errors (or can) and is just boring and tedious.
Automating things will help greatly: a report of weekly stats
compiled from various sources.
