[TDF Mobile] Releasing TDF Mobile
Now that 4.14.1 is out of the way, I want to concentrate on releasing the
new Tour de Flex Mobile app on Google Play and Apple App stores. I have
rebuilt the iOS and Android apps with the new skins and they do look pretty
good, good enough to release. I plan to be the release manager for this
release.
Here are a few issues we need to consider:
1. The ASF does not currently have a way to let TLP projects to sign app
store binaries. Instead of waiting on them, I plan to release it under my
own name, but with enough disclaimers to say that this is an [un]official
release of the Apache Flex project (only the binaries) We will be
releasing the source under the normal release process, of course.
2. Does anyone want to suggest a better name than Tour de Flex Mobile? Or
is this good enough?
3. Testing the binaries will be an interesting problem.
a. For the Android platform, I can put up the .apk file on our Apache dist
folder and ask folks to download it from there.
b. As far as the iOS app goes, I am planning on creating a TestFlight team
and send an invite to users@ and dev@ so that folks can sign up for testing
those apps.
Any suggestions or concerns, please feel free to raise them here.
Thanks,
Om

Hi,
I would be interested in testing on Android and IOS.
Tour de Flex Mobile -> It is good enough :-)
Thanks.

Update:
I recently switched computers and have not been able to access ASF Git
since then. I have been working with the Infra team to get this resolved.
Which means that I won't be able to work on the release till I have my Git
access restored. Are there any volunteers for making this happen in the
meantime?
Basically, we need a release manager to work on getting the source and
binaries (Android + iOS) ready.
Thanks,
Om

Thanks for all the feedback! Let's go with "Tour de Apache Flex" for now.
I will get on with building the binaries and will start separate [DISCUSS]
threads for iOS and Android testing.

Re: [TDF Mobile] Releasing TDF Mobile

Since Tour De Flex has "Flex" in it, a search for Flex might be okay.
But another of my concerns would be that typing Flex in the Play Store
makes us compete with a lot of "gym" and other applications.. it's just
a very common word. Linking to Apache gives it some distinction. Just my
thoughts on the topic.

Hi Eric, Om
Eric, I agree with you: Flex (and Apache) should show up.
I was about to delete the email with TDF in the subject, because TDF did
not ring a bell (OK, now perhaps it will...).
I would search for somehting with Flex in the mobile stores, but
certainly not for TDF; if at all (not a mobile freak neither ;-)
I might find some time to look into it on both platforms, but would not
call that "tests".

2 - I don't know if this is a "better" name since it's certainly more
boring, but if you're thinking it needs a new name, I suggest renaming
it something with Apache Flex in it. That term needs to get plastered
all over the Internet in as many places as possible IMO. Maybe
something like "Apache Flex [Mobile] Showcase", assuming people agree
it's a good fit. Boring, I know, but it's straight to the point and
links Apache to Flex.
3 - I'm curious enough to try testing (although honestly, I'm not a big
fan of anything mobile - go ahead, call me Cave Man).

Well the problem is Adobe signed RSLs get put in the special cache outside of your browser so it stays even when you clear your cache. If we sign it, the rsls will still be placed in the browser cache. It still has a benefit, but is obviously more limited.

Ah, that was it. And I'm sure Adobe won't train the FP to recognise
the Apache signed RSLs (I assume this has been discussed, but I can't

AFAIK That different to signing mobile apps.
however it woudl be useful for the installer as it removes a step when installing on windows as it's then considered a trusted app.
I have the info if anyone is interested (from last ApacheCon).

Go for it. IIRC, there is an experiment going on at the ASF about signing
binaries. I think the OpenOffice folks are driving it.

2 - I don't know if this is a "better" name since it's certainly more
boring, but if you're thinking it needs a new name, I suggest renaming
it something with Apache Flex in it. That term needs to get plastered
all over the Internet in as many places as possible IMO. Maybe
something like "Apache Flex [Mobile] Showcase", assuming people agree
it's a good fit. Boring, I know, but it's straight to the point and
links Apache to Flex.
3 - I'm curious enough to try testing (although honestly, I'm not a big
fan of anything mobile - go ahead, call me Cave Man).

Hi,
I would be interested in testing on Android and IOS.
