ID: 78140 Updated by: [email protected] Reported by: arueckauer at gmail dot com Summary: List available releases as Feed (windows.php.net) Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I don't think that having a separate news feed for the Windows binaries/packages is appropriate, since these are just builds of the source packages announced in the php.net release news feed. Instead we could add one (or multiple) links to the php.net release news feed pointing to the Windows builds (which would require to have permanent links, though, i.e. we should no longer move files to archives/ if new releases are available). A file with machine readable information regarding available releases/snaps etc. would make sense, though. Allowing access to cache.info[1] might be a start.

It would be a great feature to have a XML feeds (like https://www.php.net/releases/feed.php), JSON or possible other formats. As recommended by Anatol Belski (@weltling) (see https://twitter.com/weltling/status/1136962886386036736) I am opening this ticket for discussion. I would be happy to help on the implementation, but have no experience so far pertaining to the PHP website itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78140&edit=1 -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
