Do we need to prepare or adapt the download page?

This will considerably change the current logic being used. Is
there some
reason you don't want to use the existing setup of:
root DL area/files/stable/3.4/...
root DL area/files/localized/3.4/...
see:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/
I had a look to other projects in the dist folder on Apache and looked
what we already have.
From my point of view the old structure doesn't really make too much
sense.
Why should we for example put the localized bit in separate directories
when we have the language Id as part of the name?
And we have only stable releases in the future. Ok we will have
archives
of older versions but that's it.
Do we have the time to adapt it to the new structure. We should do
it ow
if possible.
What do others think?
It won't work because the DL logic is working the old way, and only
this way. ;-)
The old structure has everything in a single directory. The only
separation is for en-US only (stable) and all other languages
(localized).
When we change the structure now where the builds are physicaly
existing, then we have to adapt the complete logic, too, which is an
effort that I cannot predict.
So, the best solution is to keep the old separation and think about
to change this with a new release.
Then I would prefer to have every install file for a specific version
in a single directory. This makes it the easiest way to assemble
download links:
Example:
<root-path>/files/3.4.0/...
<root-path>/files/3.4.1/...
<root-path>/files/3.5.0/...
...
We can only keep the most current version in Apache dist. All older
versions go to the archive.
Oh yes, right, then it's only one directory.

right now -- especially with the desire to continue to serve up
"friendly" dl logic in the new /download/3.3.0 directory, this is really
and truly critical. Yes, it's true, given the Apache current release
dictum, we will only have one directory setup --
/dist/incubator/ooo/files/3.4.0/stable
/dist/incubator/ooo/files/3.4.0/localized
Seriously, once we get past this release, we could and should discuss
this some more, but for now...we don't really have time to re-do the
logic for a different directory setup
