The current problem is, users who visit the official downloads page (http://qt-project.org/downloads) are given no way to get Qt 5.1.1 or 5.2.0. It says "all older versions of Qt are available in [http://download.qt-project.org/archive/]", which is incomplete. This incomplete page should be updated, at the very least. Would the official downloads page be sufficient for "those looking recently released packages"? If I want a version that's not the latest release, the first place I'd check is the archive. Also, there are no links to http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/ from the Qt Project website, AFAICS. How do users find it? What do you think of this arrangement?: - When a packages are released, put them straight in the archive - Make http://qt-project.org/downloads a simple front-end that points to the latest packages in the archive - Then, no extra maintenance is required when the next release comes - (To preserve any existing links, redirect requests for http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/ to http://download.qt-project.org/archive/) Regards, Sze-Howe > > "Thiago Macieira" <[email protected]> kirjoitti 8.2.2014 kello 8.16: > > > >> Em sáb 08 fev 2014, às 11:39:15, Sze Howe Koh escreveu: > >> As per the email subject, the archive is incomplete: > >> http://download.qt-project.org/archive/qt/ > > > > They're here: > > > > http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/ > > > > I don't know why we have two different places for the files. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
