Hi all,
So we uploaded the platform 9.0-alpha binaries to
https://dist.apache.org [1]
As a consequence the artifacts are now available through the Apache
mirror network.
The URL to download these artifacts can be constructed using the
https://www.apache.org/dyn/mirrors/mirrors.cgi script, setting the
parameters "action=download" and "filename=..." as in [2].
This "mirrors.cgi" script automatically selects the user's closest
Apache mirror to download from. That's handy.
Would it be possible to generate our update center xml & nbms and upload
that to https://dist.apache.org along with the binary and source artifacts?
That way we could use the same "mirrors.cgi" script as an Update Center
url, and users would benefit from the Apache mirror network to download
stuff more easily.
Would that be a viable solution for NetBeans-330 "NetBeans 9.0 UC hosted
on Apache infra" [3]?
Thanks,
Antonio
