[DRAFT] Installer 3.0 Announcement
Hi,
I'll send this out after the 4.12.1 announcement.
-- start draft announcement --
The Apache Flex community is pleased to announce the release of Apache
Flex SDK Installer 3.0
Apache Flex is a highly productive, open source application framework for
building and maintaining expressive applications that deploy consistently
on all major browsers, desktops and devices (including smartphones,
tablets and tv).
Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.0 is an update to Apache Flex SDK Installer
2.7.
It provides the ability to install other SDKs like the FlexJS SDK.
Apache Flex SDK Installer is available in source form from the following
download page:
http://flex.apache.org/download-source.html
Executables for Windows and Mac are available here:
http://flex.apache.org/installer.html
Executables for Linux are no longer provided as all recent Flex and FlexJS
SDKs can be installed by running the installer.xml Ant script in the
release packages.
When downloading from a mirror site, please remember to verify the
downloads using signatures or MD5 hashes.
For more information on Apache Flex, visit the project home page:
http://flex.apache.org
Thank you for using Apache Flex,
The Apache Flex Community

Thanks,
-Alex

What is the absolute url of the installer config xml? That needs to be
hardcoded into the badge swf. If you give me that, I can prep a new swf
for the badge.

The binaries were pushed yesterday. They've had about 24 hours.
What are the steps for changing what the Badge Installer does?
I guess I'll update the xml files this evening and test the installers
before sending the announcement. Any other steps?

Alex,
Please make sure you wait for the installer binary artifacts to propagate
through the mirrors for at least 24 hours before you send out the
announcement.
In fact, I would be happy if we wait until we test our website, badge
installer etc. before we send out an announcement.
If we have already tested all that, please ignore this.
Thanks,
Om

We could use this opportunity to piggyback all the great new stuff we have
been pushing out (FlexJS, Falcon, FlexUnit, Flex 4.12.1)
The last PR we did (I think for Installer 2.0 and a related SDK release)
got us a lot of attention.

I'm fine with that, but you just made me remember that you had concerns
about confusion from past "installer-only" announcements. I forgot to
take that into account when drafting the installer announcement. Do we
need to adjust the wording?
For me, it doesn't matter too much whether we announce the new installer
at all. We've got other announcements going out to the community. 4.12.1
was just announced, I hope to get a FlexJS 0.0.2 out soon. An SDK with
installer bugs fixed is also due shortly.

BTW, since this is a major release, we get to do a press release via ASF's
press machine. Do we want to use the same announcement for the PR as well?

Done. The site has been updated.
I tested the badge and it correctly prompts to download Installer3.0
My exisiting 2.7.0 installation correctly prompted me to auto-update to the
newest version, 3.0. The new installer downloaded and installed
correctly.
I will be around for the rest of the day if something breaks.

Re: [DRAFT] Installer 3.0 Announcement

I updated the badge, it should now point to installer 3.0 for downloads.
Also, I updated installer configs 4.0, 3.1 and 3.0 to point to correct
version of the installer binary. This is so that the auto-update mechanism
kicks in.
If no one has objections, I will go ahead and push these changes to the
site live.
Thanks,
Om

I updated the installer page on the web-site. It is on staging but not
pushed to production.
I think we need an updated badge installer before we do more?
Thanks,

I think telling people to ask on the dev list is fine (but not telling them how to do it in the announcement). We are probably going to a question or two about how to get them now that they are no longer visible by default.
The Flex JS and Flex 4.12 SDK error rate > 50% on windows with the new installer btw, with mac it's 15% (still rather high in my option). It would be nice if we could improve that. (For FlexJS it's 117 failures/98 success on windows, for 4.12.0 47 failures/46 success on windows.) Once the new installer is out if the rate holds we be getting 100+ failures a day and we're still not 100% sure what the issue is on windows - permissions and/or AIR using IE (and not default browser) to download are possible candidates.
Thanks,
Justin

I"m not sure we should be announcing how to get nightly builds in that
kind of public forum.

Hi,
You may want to mention the new caching functionality and that if you want to install nightly builds please ask on the developer list.
Thanks,
Justin
