I'm about to apply this patch. It will cause download requests to go
to the SourceForge mirrors instead of MirrorBrain. We want to confirm
that things are set up properly on the SF side, before we get the
deluge of downloads for AOO 3.4.
So please respond to this post with any oddities you see or hear about
with users downloading OOo 3.3 releases over the next few days.

I'm playing catch up here. Mostly good for my setup -- Linux 32 bit RPM
-- *except* even when I "uncheck" the JRE option on the alternate DL
page --
http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html
it still wants to give me a bundle WITH jre...
The checkbox is provided by the function "writeJavaSelector()" in the
"download.js" script file. For adding/deleting the "-wJRE" part to/from
the URL, the "updateHREFs()" function is called.
The root cause is that in the function "updateHREFs()" the new
"MIRROR_SOURCEFORGE_URL" variable is not used. Only MirrorBrain or
Bouncer is recognized.
Hi Marcus --
And thanks for the info. I didn't check into the details yesterday when
I reported this...
I think from this point on -- 3.4 forward -- we won't even be bundling
jre so maybe not a BIG deal right at the moment, but it would be nice if
we could get this fixed.
No bundled JRE files anymore in AOO --> no need to switch URLs.
So, because of this I wouldn't change it as it's not needed anymore in
the future.
well...OK. Maybe we should change messaging/ inform users that they will
ALWAYS get JRE with older versions, and none with 3.4 -> ?
unless we fix the forward...and I didn't have a fast way of checking
WHAT was ported to SF. Maybe later this weekend.
But the first thing is to get rid of all the Bouncer stuff in the script
files. When we have decided not to go back to this mirror system, then
we should cleanup the JS logic to get rid of some complexity.
Yeah--we do have some cleanup. We can discuss after the test period is
finished. Thanks for the response.
