Hi Robert, +1 for getting this going.
My only concern is the slightly ambiguous #7. I don't know that there is a standard layout for releases. It sure would be nice.
I really hate to bring up maven since the subject is clearly non- maven, but I expect many projects to build the source and binary release artifacts using maven. So it might be good to see what the maven folks would produce, before we hard code the standard layout.

infra requires that all releases are contained within /www/www.apache.org/dist/. here's my proposal for fixing the current situation for standard (non-maven) releases: 1 clarify policy (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-62) 2 explain policy in release management guide3 create /www/www.apache.org/dist/incubator but no subdirectories as yet4 locate and archive all existing incubator releases 5 link current releases in archived version 6 generate unified download script for incubator from meta-data. the unified download page will contain a disclaimer. 7 create directories for all current podlings with standard layout and appropriate permissions. README.html documents will contain the disclaimer 8 new releases are placed are mirrored and placed into the appropriate subdirectory of /www/www.apache.org/dist/incubator quick opinions can use poll below - robert ----8<------------------------------------------------------------ [ ] +1 [ ] +0 [ ] -0 [ ] -1 ------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
