Edited by Marcus Lange:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The following tasks need to be done to support the distribution of AOO 3.4 once
its release is approved.
# Start populating the mirrors with the approved AOO 3.4 images. This
could take 24 hours or more. So start this in parallel with the other
activities. {highlight:green}(*joes, galoppini*, done){highlight}
# Submit the AOO URL's and SHA256 hashes to Symantec to "whitelist" us in their
anti-virus: [https://submit.symantec.com/whitelist/isv/new/] (*robweir*)
# Disable the downloads directly from www.openoffice.org. Instead have
the download link go to download/index.html {highlight:green}(*robweir*,
done){highlight}
# Make a copy of the the older MirrorBrain-enabled download/index.html
page. Put them in a download/legacy directory. Add a disclaimer
notice that these are not Apache releases, but legacy releases under a
different license. {highlight:green}(*marcus*, done){highlight}
# Make a copy of the the older MirrorBrain-enabled download/other.html
page. Put them in a download/legacy directory. Add a disclaimer
notice that these are not Apache releases, but legacy releases under a
different license. {highlight:green}(*marcus*, done){highlight}
# Update download/index.html pages to SourceForge download locations for AOO
3.4. Establish a test period for these new links. Test with various user agent
configurations and languages. {highlight:yellow}(*kay*, in progress){highlight}
# Update download/other.html pages to SourceForge download locations for AOO
3.4. Establish a test period for these new links. Test with various user agent
configurations and languages. {highlight:yellow}(*marcus*, webpage ready, a few
builds seem to be missing as the download doesn't work yet){highlight}
# Location for source artifact linked from other.html? {highlight:green}(OK,
done){highlight}
# Update install guide if needed. {highlight:yellow}(*kay*, in
progress){highlight}
# Create a new release notes page for 3.4.0 ref on:
[http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/|http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/]
# Consult with infra regarding the use of the standard "closer.cgi" to access
mirrors. Since we are doing mirror site selection via JS, is there a problem
with using this? And if so, what do we do instead? {highlight:green}(OK, done -
Joe provided aoo-closer.cgi){highlight}
# Update branding of download/index.html and download/other.html to "Apache
OpenOffice" rather than OpenOffice.org (*kay*)
# Check and update license (and other) links on the "new" download page.
# Add text to these pages (or a new page linked to from download/index.html and
download/other.html) linking to the hash and signature files explaining how to
verify them. Look at the [Apache httpd project's download
page|http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi#apache24] for example text.
Note: links to the hashes and signatures must go to the Apache /dist copy
of these files only, not to the mirrors. {highlight:yellow}(*marcus*, checksum
webpage ready, the how to description is in progress){highlight}
# Manually update downloads from the Mac porting page and subpages:
[http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/] {highlight:green}(*marcus*,
done){highlight}
# Manually update the downloads from the Arabic NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Czech NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the German NL homepage (*nfiala*,
*rbircher*)
# Manually update the downloads from the Spanish NL homepage (*jza*)
# Manually update the downloads from the French NL homepage (*[email protected]*)
# Manually update the downloads from the Hungarian NL homepage (*r4zoli*)
# Manually update the downloads from the Galacian NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Italian NL homepage and subpages
(*pescetti*)
# Manually update the downloads from the Japanese NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Dutch NL homepage
(*[email protected]*)
# Manually update the downloads from the Brazilian NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Russian NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Simplified Chinese NL homepage
# Manually update the downloads from the Traditional Chinese NL homepage
# After the above have been done, we should pause and confirm that everything
is working before going ahead with the announcement. Let's wait for the
Release Manager to signal that we're ready to announce.
# Then announcements to ooo-announce, ooo-dev, ooo-users, blog, Twitter,
Google+, Twitter, etc.
# Seed torrents and update P2P websites:

The following is a rough overview which webpage should contain what links. This
is to keep the overview at least for the next weeks until all webpages are
final and working.
