But the "Buildbot output area" links to a page with snapshots for AOO
4.1.2. Not really helpful...
That's wrong. Well, there is a long story behind this all, but in short:
- Under Apache guidelines, dev builds should not be exposed to the
generic public, which means that a web page with the builds should not
be on the openoffice.org domain unless we are sure that people
understand that these are dev builds only (this also refers to the other
URL you sent).
- We managed to clarify the above, but still in the meantime we had
taken the habit to use the wiki page you found as a set of links to dev
builds.
- In the meantime, the new Infra convention of using the dev space in
SVN for RCs was instated, and this left us without a "canonical" space
for the ordinary dev builds - not the buildbots output but builds like
the ones Jim did and that I am currently doing as a "snapshot" of the
AOO414 branch.
I'm for deleting all unnecessary pages and resources.
At least the Linux Buildbots are working again. Hopefully someone is
working on the Windows Buildbots after the migration to Win10/64bit.
Thank you for your work on the Linux bots! And yes, working buildbots
are not essential for a release but it would be good to see them work again.
Regards,
Andrea.
