Many months ago we agreed to create a new file structure for the mirrors to
get rid of some historical grown limitations and complexity.
I want to continue this and come to a final result.
Current situation:
- Mostly it's about to differenciate the files between "stable" for en-US
files only and "localized" for all other languages.
- Due to Apache policy the source files must not be distributed by mirrors,
but have to be offered from Apache servers only.
Is that actually true? I thought it was fine to distribute our source
tarballs via the Apache mirror network. The things that must be
distributed from the Apache dist server are the hash files and
detached signature files.
You are right, I've checked this with the current downloads. So, it can stay as
it is now.
New naming structure:
- A new structure could look like the following:
<path_on_the_mirror>/<release_version>/<file_type>/<language_code>/<install_file>
Some examples to make it more realistic:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/it/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_langpack_it.exe
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/
4.0.0/binaries/SDK/Apache_OpenOffice-SDK_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe
This does not match your pattern. There is no<language-code>
component to the path?
It is, have a look for the "en-US" "it", and "SDK" pattern.
Maybe a typo in you example? I see "SDK" (and "binaries") but no
language. Surely pretending that "SDK" is a language would only
complicate the logic.
As the SDK is distributed as "en-US" files we can put them also into
this dir. However, don't worry about the logic. ;-)

What do you think?
This is fine. Could even do without the<file_type> directory. If
you do then directly to the<language_code> directory, everything is
clear by the file name.
Sure, but someone (or more people) wanted to have another sub-dir. But I don't
remember who it was.
Otherwise we end up with many directories
with only a very small number of files in them.
I don't think so. When you look at the following I wouldn't call it a small
number of files:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/localized/ar/3.4.1/
However, I don't care. Of course we could elleminate "<file_type>" from the
pattern when we could come to an agreeement.
