You know even making a small change to the website like updating the news takes like 30 minutes to run now because of all the files. Its absolutely ridiculous.
I got chided by the CMS group, yet when asked how do we put documentation online with the new system there were crickets.

The wiki was also having issues. I ran rat on the the released source, that seems fine. did a compare on src zip and the tag. it matches. The only things I saw are nit picks. in the ReadMe the link should point to its respective tag instead of RC3 for just 2_9_4 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lucene.net/tags/Lucene.Net_2_9_4_RC3/lib/should be when releasing the source in the future, we should either include a script that pulls the lib for the developers who want to compile from source inside a tag when the project is built using the solution. Or we should invest into using something like nuget for dependencies so that the dependencies are automatically fetched somehow and we can remove those from svn/scm altogether. the source currently violates the "don't make me think about it" principle. I know we all dislike chms, but until we figure out a better way of posting the generated msdn documentation online, we should include that in releases as well. The static website version generates a high number of static html files and our current CMS requires that those files are pushed into SVN which just is not feasible. Committing that all at once will choke infra's setup (and if they hired ninjas to pay us a visit, I probably wouldn't blame them) and doing partial commits is just borderline insanity. Just waiting on the all the tests to finish running. http://xkcd.com/303/ On Wed, Jan 25, 2012 at 6:29 AM, Stefan Bodewig <bode...@apache.org> wrote: > On 2012-01-25, Michael Herndon wrote: > > > Stefan what did you use to check the eof of files for svn? > > Pretty much a long and boring manual process.
