Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Reminders of "to-dos" this week
|
Egad!
Yes, Kim is right; I had specifically asked that Platform, CDT and WTP
notify us webmasters in advance of releases (anything with an R- in
front of it) so we can allow mirrors to sync up. Nothing here has
changed. In fact, this applis perhaps even more so now if Platform, WTP
*and* CDT will be doing a maintenance release all on the same day.
Don't be fooled: a Platform maintenance release without any mirrors will
give everyone a good part of the day off as our site grinds to a
screeching halt.
Kim's (B) point below is also to be taken into consideration.
Thanks,
D.

Historically speaking, if I make a release available on eclipse.org
without ensuring it can be downloaded from a few mirrors in advance...
A. Eclipse.org's bandwidth becomes saturated because everyone is
downloading or running updates from eclipse.org instead of a mirror
B. Everyone complains that they can't download eclipse R x.x.x because
it's not on a mirror yet
So if this has changed, and I can just release eclipse 3.2.1 (complete
zips & updates) at will, let me know. I know this has caused problems
in the past.

Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Reminders of "to-dos" this week
Yes, that's my understanding. (if I understand your question :)
Sound ok? It is believed there is no massive downloads during
maintenance releases, like there is for releases, so careful timing was
not believed to be required.
But ... I was so disappointed the release went so smoothly (without the
yearly work stoppage waiting for Eclipse :) .... so perhaps we'll prove
it only went smoothly with all that careful planning and timing? :)
If anyone "knows better" and thinks more care is needed here, please let
us (and the webmasters!) know.

Hi David
To clarify, when you say there is no
"take-offline-and-perform-a-mass-copy" do you mean that the eclipse
foundation webmasters don't intend to stop the replication on the nodes
to allow the releases to synchronize on the mirrors before they are
visible on eclipse.org?

[cross-project-issues-dev] Reminders of "to-dos" this week
Just wanted to remind everyone of the tasks for the "Callisto Fall
Maintenance" release.
Final bits are due Wednesday, 27th, to allow mirror propagation time by
Friday 9/29, the formal "release" of the maintenance release.
There is no "take-offline-and-perform-a-mass-copy" as there was before,
so I suggest updating and "deploying" as soon as possible,
to avoid any last minute rush.
Remember to update your own project update sites! Users who already have
your features installed should be able to say "update existing
features" and get the updates from your project site, not Callisto.
The main purpose of updating the Callisto site is so that people
"starting anew" will get the latest stuff, and not immediately have to
get updates after they install.
And, if I may speak for Bjorn :)
don't forget there is a Planning Call on Thursday, the 28th, with an
important agenda item.
* Thursday, September 28 9am PT, noon ET
o Go-no-go decision meeting
/613.287.8000 or 866.362.7064 passcode 874551#/
