Archiving the AOO 3.4.0
Hi at all
I working at the moment on the Archive for the AOO 3.4.0. The big
question is: Is it enough to archive only the langpacks and a en-US
Version? Same Question also for older Versions. We would save a load of
disk space at Apache. And for my point of view, if sameone realy want a
old localized version he/she can install en-US and a langpack. What's
your option?

AFAIK, it is a requirement to archive everything that has been released.
Note that everything under /www/www.apache.org/dist/ [i.e. 0] is
automatically copied to the ASF archive server [1].
AFAICT all the source and binary releases for 3.4.0 are present on the
ASF systems; so it looks to me as though this has already happened
automatically.
Check the files under [1] to see.

If you have some more ideas this would be a good topic for an
ApacheCon presentation ;-)

If you are referring to versions created before OO joined the ASF, I
don't think we need to archive those.

AFAIK, we never delete archive files.

But also the old archive is not compleete. We archive the full version
for a while, and then we reduce it to the english version only
This time it's "only" about 16 GB. but I'm not happy with the solution.

+1. Archive whatever we release. If we want to solve the size issue
then we need to change how we package OpenOffice releases. That will
require some engineering work. If it was easy then someone would have
already done it.

It would be better to archive everything we distributed officially. I
know there is a lot of redundancy, but this is due to the fact that we
are redundant also in our official distribution.
