Re: [VOTE]: Slide 2.0b1 release and website update

[Oliver Zeigermann]

As it seems to be hard to figure out how many downloads there will be, 
would it be a solution to have it unmirrored for a week or so and see 
what happens? After that time we can still make it mirrored.

Anyway, is this question really worth the fuss? I have no idea what it 
takes to actually mirror the release. Does it cost much? If not why not 
simply do it?

Folks!

I want to roll out a beta release for Slide 2.0 and we were discussing 
if we should have it mirrored or not. It is the first release for over 2 
years now and thus we expect many downloads, even though I can not tell 
what that means in numbers.

If we decide to have it at http://www.apache.org/dist/ shall I move the 
1.0.x release to http://archive.apache.org/dist/ in order to avoid 
confusion or shall I leave it where it is.

Thanks in advance for clarifications!

Cheers,

Oliver

However, I thought I recalled a rule of thumb that if you expect more 
than
about 600 downloads, put it under the mirror structure.  Any 
expectation for
Slide?

In any event, just check with infrastructure@ for guidance.
