With the Oracle infrastructure going away we are in danger of losing the
legacy downloads and the root of the MirrorBrain network.
I haven't realised that this counts also for the download webserver. I
thought for mail services only.
Also it turns out that the Extensions site uses the url
updateexte.services.openoffice.org for updates and that url points to
download.services.openoffice.org
I don't know the reason for the linking. But maybe it's because a few
extensions are outsourced from the main repository due to their high load.
See:
http://download.services.openoffice.org/files/extended/extensions/
SourceForge has asked to take control of
updateexte.services.openoffice.org which makes sense.
Great.
Let us know how to move this forward. By the way, we look forward to
give the control back to the community for maintenance, maybe we could
create an admin account for Infra?
What do we want to do about download.services.openoffice.org?
It can be switched to the alternative host which is hosted by MirrorBrain
itself, so that this is used for serving downloads instead of the Oracle
hosted service.
See the file "http://www.openoffice.org/download/globalvars.js";. Just
exchange the content for the "MIRROR_MIRRORBRAIN_URL" and
"MIRROR_MIRRORBRAIN2_URL" variables.
If you need any help on that let us know, we might serve them temporary in case.
No problem, I can do the change at (nearly ;-) ) any time. It's just one
commit away.
But it would be interesting to know a bit more about hosting the
download bits. Is it also via MirrorBrain? What's the URL?
Thanks
Marcus
