They are moved, using svn move.

If it's for the NetBeans plugin you can look at the name structure above
for the AOO files. Maybe it's possible to adopt it completely or do some
changes where it makes sense.

For the "real" OpenOffice release there is nothing to discuss. Files are uploaded to the staging area and from there to dist.

For this "extra" Netbeans plugin release (in the meantime I have taken a look at the sources and I found it is much more complex than what I thought, so it's reasonable to attempt a proper release) I suggest that we add one source-only file to the existing folders.

Specifically (this is extremely important so please ask again for any doubts, or you will break a lot of technical assumptions):

1) You upload the RC (one source file, with hashes/signatures) in a new subdirectory of https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/ (say, https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/netbeans-plugin-412-RC1-r1800000 ); and you call the file something like netbeans-plugin-r1800000.tar.gz, reflecting the SVN revision it comes from.

2) After a successful vote, the one file you placed there (accompanied by its hashes/signatures) is moved (using svn move) to dist. The target directory to use is this one: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/openoffice/4.1.2/source/ ; please do not create anything else, the plugin sources will live in the source directory of the matching (or closest in time) OpenOffice release.

As discussed, binaries for the Netbeans plugin are not released on the ASF infrastructure, so after approval you are free to build and sign them according to the rules needed on NetBeans.org; and no copy of them will be preserved on dist.

  Andrea.


Hi Andrea,

Thanks for the very detailed answer.

I was looking at how some other projects handled "extras" things like this.

I found Maven uses sub-folders under release/maven for plugins, plugin-tools, etc, that don't go into their main release folder. [1].
Their plugins are source only because they are distributed via Maven Repos.

Should we use something like a devtools subfolder under release/openoffice so they don't have to be redone for each maintenance release of AOO or end up with multiples in each AOO release? Something like :

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/openoffice/devtools/

[1] https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/maven/plugins/

Thanks,
Carl
