just looked into it and tried to see where your changes would be
reflected in the jakarta-/bsf-site, but unfortunately have not been able
to find anything related to announcing and downloading beta2.

Where and what changes did you apply?

Where would you like to get to see which text? Which URLs should be used
for downloading the beta package (pointing to
<http://people.apache.org/~antelder/bsf/3.0-beta2-rc2/>?) ?

Here are the results of svn info:

Will be around tomorrow too, on Sunday on the way to Atlanta and would
be able to work from there as well.

If everything goes foul, I would try to get an entry under "news"
informing of the availability of beta2 and supplying the URL you posted.
Would that be o.k.? In case we could come up with a brief
press-release-kind of info (BSF3, what is it, what does it allow for,
present state, where to get), then we could use that as the news item.

well, if you manage to get "downloads_bsf.cgi" page to mention both, 2.4

It looks like all the permissions issues have been sorted out and the

O.K. now I had been able to upload the bsf-3.0-beta2-* files to

So  hopefully now everything is in place for picking up the 2.4 and the

Only until all the  permissions problems get resolved, which sounds like it
wont be long.

I agree with you,  the 2.x and 3.x  versions have completely different APIs
so some people will stay on 2.x  for the foreseeable future and we should
keep both available.

Am I understanding correctly that you're proposing to leave the  
download page as it is? If so, then I do feel strongly that that's  
the wrong thing to do. Many more people are interested in release  
versions than beta versions. There are also plenty of links to that  
page that mention that that's where you can get BSF 2.4. Having to  
follow the "browse download area" or "archive" links is counter- 
intuitive; it looks as if there is no released version right now.

Why not put up the beta version someplace else (I seem to remember  
seeing a link to Ant's personal pages at apache.org that contained  
it), and change the announcement to point to that page?

(As an aside, I would argue that even after the 3.0 release, 2.4  
should remain available, and visibly linked to.)

I assume you are familiar with <http://www.apache.org/dev/> and in
particular <http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html>.  If not, feel
free to ask (though I may not be too fast in answering since my email
time is pretty limited ATM).

I just had a look at the directories on minotaur and the bsf source
and binaries directories lacked the group write bit, I've just created
new ones with proper permissions and copied over the contents of the
original ones.

Unfortunately I cannot remove the old directories (I could rename them
and they now live as .binaries and .source), I'll ask infrastructure
to do that - and fix the permissions for the KEYS and README files
while they are at it as well.

If we just return to the 2.4 status quo then the 3.0 releases will never get

leave it broken like this as at least then it prompts everyone to help try

No.

The Python script parses the HTML file generated by the XML file I
cited in my previous mail[1].  The reason you don't see any links to
the 2.4 release from the download page anymore is that you (Ant) have
removed them.

Re-add them and the 2.4 links will show up again.

This is a different issue.  Where have you put your release files on
people.apache.org?

Releases should be in /www/www.apache.org/dist/... since this is where
the mirrors pick them up.  Looking into
<http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/bsf/> I don't see them and looking
at the local file system on minotaur (the machine behind our websites)
I can't find them either.

The problem has arisen by the
"http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_bsf.cgi" script that
seems to get automatically generated when the Jakarta site is refreshed
(some Python script on a mirror).

The only choice on the "download_bsf.cgi" page is the beta2 of BSF 3.0,
leading to one of the mirrors for downloading, but the BSF3-beta2
package is not available from any of those mirrors that get used. The
same holds true when going via <http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/>.

On the download page, if clicking on the "browse download area" link
will list the release version of BSF 2.4.

So things are really messed up a little bit at the moment, and (at least
for me) it is not clear why that could happen in the first place (which
would be important to learn in order to not fall into a possible trap in
the future).

Well,

shows the 2.4 links have been removed.

I haven't worked on the jakarta site myself in a long time, but I
think you really only need to add back the four removed lines and
regenerate the docs.

thanks for pointing that out!

If anyone has an idea/hint of why this has happened it would be really
great (it seems all committers are a little bit greenhorn'ish w.r.t.
using the infrastructure for publishing). 
[Will want to read up all sources on infrastructure for committers to
figure that out, but may take a few days.]

Yes, did as far as I could. "bsfnews.html" got updated, although it is
not yet visible via the www site.

Unfortunately, I cannot copy the binaries from
"/home/antelder/public_html/bsf/3.0-beta2-rc2/" to
"/www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/bsf/binaries". Seems I do not have enough
rights either (groups yielding: "rony apcvs jakarta member apsite").
:-(
Maybe someone with more power can do that?

Regards,

---rony

Getting a bit further, I've updated  these two:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jakarta/site/docs/site/downloads/downloads_bsf.html?view=log
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jakarta/bsf/trunk/docs/bsfnews.html?view=log

Doesn't look like i have access to the Jakarta www area or the Jarkate BSF
download area so can't update the website or copy those or the actual
distribution artifacts over, eg:

> cp bsf-3.0-beta2-b* /x1/www/www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/bsf/binaries/
cp: /x1/www/www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/bsf/binaries/bsf-
3.0-beta2-bin.zip.md5:
Permission denied

Could you do try doing that bit?
