PROPOSAL: Host and support nightly Aurora builds on Apache servers
Hi everyone,
This is a proposal to provide nightly builds in three Linux flavors: Debian
Jessie, Ubuntu Trusty and CentOS for public consumption. Exposing them
through Jenkins build job is one option and would be enough.
Reason for nightlies is to allow us quicker testing in production for
features which we have contributed but have not yet made the official
release cut.
This is purely an RFC as I could not find other Apache projects doing
nightlies, though I found that some projects eg Zookeeper provide alpha
releases[1] while Mesos does not[2].
Thanks,
Dmitriy.

We don't - I just suggested this since we have

Looks like there's nothing left to do here - the artifacts now show up via
the link above.

Thanks - the access works. We'll see how jenkins deals with the
distribution name clobbering.

You should now have access. Note that i've already made what i assume is
the necessary config change for this discussion, was waiting for a build to
complete to see if it worked.

Who has the rights to do this? I poked around yesterday to double check,
but - although my login grants me job re-build perms, it does not grant me
right to either view or edit the jenkins job configs.

FWIW we already link to nightlies from https://aurora.apache.org/downloads/
I think all that's needed here is an adjustment to the jenkins
configuration to register the jessie debs as artifacts.
