Re: Release 4.1.3 (4.1.4)

This is one of the processes where OpenOffice simply behaves as a normal Apache project. Release Candidates (please note: ONLY Release Candidates) should be uploaded to SVN following the normal process outlined at http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing.html This means that Release Candidates for OpenOffice should go here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/ There are two reasons, though, for us NOT uploading the normal dev builds (those that are not meant to be voted upon; of course 4.1.4 is not at RC stage) there: 1. Uploading dozens of GBytes to SVN is really painful 2. Since SVN stores (on the server) the history of all files, this would be heavy on the SVN server So we've traditionally hosted the normal dev builds (before RC) on people.apache.org; but Infra decided to replace it with home.apache.org and to make it SFTP-only (no rsync); still, it is possible, while still painful, to upload an OpenOffice development snapshot there; see https://home.apache.org/~pescetti/openoffice-4.1.3-dev-r1761989/binaries/ as an example. Which in short means: before RC, use a personal space to share builds, home.apache.org being the most "politically correct" option (even though from a technical point of view there are no advantages in using it rather than a personal web space). Feel free to include this information in the wiki pages if needed.

Note: these are best defined as AOO414 (this is a name of a branch, not of a product) builds since we are still not close to RC stage for OpenOffice 4.1.4. I think this is clear to everybody, but I repeated it just in case someone in the misunderstands these as "possible Release Candidates for 4.1.4". Configure settings were: LANGS="ast bg ca ca-XR ca-XV cs da de el en-GB en-US es eu fi fr gd gl he hi hu it ja kid km ko lt nb nl pl pt pt-BR ru sk sl sr sv ta th tr vi zh-CN zh-TW" ./configure \ --with-build-version="$(date +"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M") - `uname -sm`" \ --with-vendor="Apache OpenOffice Community Build" \ --enable-verbose \ --with-openldap \ --enable-category-b \ --enable-bundled-dictionaries \ --enable-wiki-publisher \ --with-junit="/usr/local/share/java/junit.jar" \ --with-jdk-home="$JAVA_HOME" \ --with-ant-home="$ANT_HOME" \ --with-epm=/usr/local/bin/epm \ --with-dmake-path=/usr/local/bin/dmake \ --without-stlport \ --with-package-format="installed dmg" \ --disable-systray \ --with-alloc=system \ --with-lang="${LANGS}" Where are these settings from? Here you find the real options used for 4.1.2: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/devtools/build-scripts/4.1.2/unxmacos/build_aooreleases.sh?revision=1736814&view=markup#l29 While your options seem to follow the script you wrote uploaded to SVN for 4.1.3: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/devtools/build-scripts/4.1.3/unxmacos/build_aoo64bit_on_osx10.11.sh?view=log But if I recall correctly that script was not used for the actual 4.1.3 builds. It would be good to use at least the same build version across operating systems... but again, this is the reason for having dev builds! So let's share what we have, document properly and then fix the differences.
