Hi. I had a talk on #asfinfra today, regarding our upcomming 4.0.1 release.
Sync on mirrors takes about a week, and the mirror can in general not hold 4.0 and 4.0.1 Therefore the current suggestion is to a) remove 4.0 from mirrors GA - 1week = 12 september b) update 4.0.1 to mirrors GA = 19 september. The downside is that mirrors will have the 4.0 ready for download for upto a week. An alternative suggestion, is to rename 4.0 to 4.0.x on the mirrors and have a 4.0 symlink pointing at 4.0.x. That way, we simply replace the 4.0.x file, after GA, and mirrors do not have a time without a package. I personally like the rename idea, so can we do lazy consensus on that ? I have updated issue 6654, and Henkp is copied on this mail. rgds jan I
