Hi,

I would like to continue to provide 680 milestones as before 2.0 release. Since these snapshots are mainly for QA purpose I would like to have these snapshots installed in parallel with the stable releases.

for that reason we can't simply release a 2.0.135 since than the snapshot would be the 2.0 default installation. Expansion of the productname to openoffice.org-snapshot-2.0 might resolve this but might leave some question like desktop integration open.

The next target is going to be 2.0.1 ?
On the rpm ordering side of things perhaps making snapshots along the
way to 2.0.1 of
openoffice.org-2.0.1-0.m m for minor would be a useful approach e.g. openoffice.org-2.0.1-0.135
all of the snapshots before the release of 2.0.1-m will then be < than
the final 2.0.1 release rpms while the snapshots are > the current 2.0.0
series. Keeping the sequence sane.

Wouldn't this still remove 2.0.0 in favor of 2.0.1-0.135 ?

Actually I think the only way I to keep 2.0.0 on disk when installing 2.0.1-pre is to change the package names to something like openoffice.org-core01-dev etc. . The desktop-integration packages would still conflict - due to famous /usr/bin/soffice :(.

Maybe it is time to release 'real' tarballs for those who want to keep 2.0.0 around ..
