Hi. I've noticed that there is a significant amount of binaries in the SVM staging area at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/ - I am trying to upload new bits in there, but running `svm update` takes half an hour right now and is hardly in the middle. Here is the list of directories in the staging area that I find superfluous:
incubating-netbeans-java - incubating-9.0-beta/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-beta/> - incubating-9.0-beta-rc2/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-beta-rc2/> - incubating-9.0-beta-rc3/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-beta-rc3/> - incubating-9.0-rc1-rc1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-rc1-rc1/> - incubating-9.0-vc1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-vc1/> - incubating-9.0-vc2/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-vc2/> - incubating-9.0-vc3/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0-vc3/> incubating-netbeans-platform - incubating-9.0-beta/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-beta/> - incubating-9.0-beta-rc2/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-beta-rc2/> - incubating-9.0-beta-rc3/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-beta-rc3/> - incubating-9.0-rc1-rc1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-rc1-rc1/> - incubating-9.0-vc1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-vc1/> - incubating-9.0-vc2/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-vc2/> - incubating-9.0-vc3/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-platform/incubating-9.0-vc3/> nothing against keeping 10.0-vcX in there until it is approved and moved to release area at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/netbeans/, but keeping there the old 9.0-vcX just complicates working with the staging directory. Shouldn't they be removed? What is the Apache policy, dear mentors? Remove? Keep? Thanks. -jt
