Right now, the main entry point for user downloads are one of these pages: http://www.openoffice.org/ http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html http://www.openoffice.org/download/ (redirected from http://download.openoffice.org) We (the AOO PMC) control the contents of these pages. We don't need to involve Infra to make modifications there. The pages currently route the download requests to the MirrorBrain network. If I understand the 3.4 mirror plan correctly, we would have two download links, probably at the topmost level, which would be www.openoffice.org and maybe download.openoffice.org. If you want to prototype something to test this with the legacy 3.3 downloads, that sounds OK with me. However, I'm not very familiar with the logic in that page, and how it determines what file to download based on platform and locale. Is there someone on the AOO project who understands this logic, and how we can modify these pages to offer a link to SF for downloads?

If we can test with the 3.3 legacy downloads that will give us some greater confidence that it will also work with the 3.4 downloads. -Rob > Roberto > ==== > This e- mail message is intended only for the named recipient(s) above.
