Re: Debian repository for AOO
I dont mind tagging along for Fedora/OpenSUSE builds using OBS, I already have a few repos I manage which build cross-distribution. My only big issue currently is dmake behavior. Having the sources to build from autotools, cmake, scons or anything more popular would most likely provide better grounds for massification.

Re: Debian repository for AOO
Hello, I run support for SourceForge, and one of my colleagues (Roberto) passed on this message to me. Perhaps I can shed some light on this. It looks like the previous attempt to host a Debian repo on our site[1] was using the Project Web hosting space on our site, however, that space is designed to be used only for web site content, not downloads. That rationale, coupled with past abuse on that space led to us implementing the bandwidth limits. [1]http://apacheoo-deb.sourceforge.net/ The File Release System[2] on the other hand, does not have said bandwidth limits, and while I haven't done this myself, I've heard from several users that they've had no problems setting up a Debian repos in this space. They said that all they did was set up the repo locally, then used rsync[3] to upload it to the File Release System. Doing it this way also gives the added benefit of utilizing both our worldwide mirror system, as well as our file statistics systems.

Re: Debian repository for AOO
Could you clarify why using the mirror system isn't appropriate? Several users have told me that the mirror system works fine with the apt repositories they set up, and it seems to me that using the mirror system would provide better download availability and performance. That is, if you hard code to files directly, you'd need to designate a specific mirror (which we don't recommend), which would mean 1) some users may be forced to a mirror halfway across the globe, 2) you'll run into availability issues if the mirror goes down or needs to be taken offline for some reason, and 3) you miss out on download statistics (which only get logged if the downloads go through our mirror redirector).
