Yes. > How do you distinguish > between pages for "developers" and "general users"? One way is to have a "developers" page. This is done by some projects, e.g. Math http://commons.apache.org/math/developers.html Or there could be a separate "Building" page, which describes how to build the software (i.e. Java version, Ant target, Maven version and goals). This would be a useful page in its own right. The build page could link to the nightly builds, via a suitable warning page. For example, the JMeter page: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/nightly.html makes it very clear that the builds are unsupported, and so does the actual download area. For Commons, it might be easiest to have a shared page that all projects could use. > cheers > -- > Torsten > > On 19.02.2008, at 17:05, sebb wrote: > > > http://www.apache.org/dev/nightly-builds.html says that nightly builds > > are allowed, but that the general public should not be pointed to > > them. > > > > Seems to me that the front page and download pages for a project are > > intended for the general public, and therefore should not link > > directly to nightly builds. > > > > Ideally the nightly build links should only be included on pages that > > are intended for developers. > > > > If there are links on the main "public" pages, it seems to me these > > should be via a page that points out that nightly builds are not for > > the casual user. > > > > WDYT? > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
