Hi,

I have investigated in a script to create our source release packages.
As I have mentioned in an earlier email I've tried native tools as well
as an ant script. The time difference wasn't huge and I moved forward
with the ant approach.

I have checked in a new file main/solenv/bin/srcrelease.xml and have
added a new target "aoo_srcrelease" in instsetoo_native/util/makefile.mk.

This new target will create 3 file in
instsetoo_native/<output_dir>/AOO_SRC_Release

For example:
main/instsetoo_native/unxmacxi.pro/AOO_SRC_Release/aoo-3.4-src.zip
main/instsetoo_native/unxmacxi.pro/AOO_SRC_Release/aoo-3.4-src.tar.gz
main/instsetoo_native/unxmacxi.pro/AOO_SRC_Release/aoo-3.4-src.tar.bz2
...

I have also played with signing and have created a new key to sign the
files etc. I have uploaded a first set of files for testing if you are
interested. You can find everything under
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/developer-snapshots/src_releases/srcrelease.html



Feel free to test it and give me feedback or add files to the exclude
list that are specific to other platforms. I have tested on MacOS so far.



More work to do towards a release

- create src release specific README file (on my list for next week)

- update build guides in the wiki -> help is very appreciated here, I
will start with MacOS

- finish the integration of the NOTICE file in the binary releases. It's
more or less done and I have to test it on more platforms

In general I think we make good progress and can focus on more bugfixing
now or QA to find potenially new serioous problems.


by the way has anybody tried it out yet, I would be interested if checking the signature is ok ...

Juergen
