As this is our first beta release at Apache, I would like to clarify
some things before it's maybe too late to change the facts and to
prepare webpages:

3. File names:

Of course the file names of the install files have to show a difference
compared to the general release files. Suggestion:

Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Beta_Win_x86_install.exe

*If* there is a need to publish another round, it could be extended
with
a number like:

Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.0_Beta2_Win_x86_install.exe

OK, I've learned that this won't be possible and the names will be
slightly different - but only as long as they are not uploaded to
Sourceforge. Therefore I suggest to rename them to the synxtax that was
used before (see above).

I've created already a little shell script to do the work but won't
attach here.

@Juergen: Is this something for you?

no and I am not in favor or changing the names. I would like to use the
names as they came out of the build.

Please point me to the scripts that build the name for the download. It
should be easy to put the beta string in the correct position.

You want to edit the download scripting but not doing a 1 minute file
renaming? Hm ;-)

I said that I would like to use the bits that comes out of the build
process directly without any further touching.



We have already said why the naming scheme is different and that it
requires more time to analyze and tweak the build process for a proper
naming. We hope that we can cleanup and improve this for the next
release.

I have not asked to change the names in the build system but what comes
out of it.

I know that but every extra step in the release phase that is not
necessary shoudl be avoided. Changing the download script should be
trivial as well.

Nobody can say if we really will work on this cleanup and time for it.
That means tweak the existing process to the names the build produce and
not introduce a further step.



But for now I would like to avoid any extra step and the change in the
download script is one place. Otherwise I have to change several places
where I automate some pre-release steps.

So, it seems you or me have to change something in order to get working
download.

OK, don't worry I'll take care of it.

again, point us to the relevant scripts or better to the place where I
can find instructions to do that for cases where you are not available.

an overview of the Beta files can found under
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/test/4.1.0-beta_files.txt

IT is not yet 100% complete because the Linux upload is still ongoing. I
will update it asap

Thanks a lot :-) I will look for the missing files.

Marcus
