Snapshot builds questions
Hi all
1) Is there a log with changes for the current daily/nightly build compared
to the latest official release (in this case 4.1.0)?
2) Why is the latest Windows Snapshot Packages build older than 4.1.0?
Thanks,
Pedro

Hi Stuart, all
Not exactly what I expected but it allows to see progress ;)
Thank you for the explanations. It is pretty much what I figured.
Good to know you are collaborating on this project too.
Cheers,
Pedro

Yes it is the SVN for Trunk, look at the Revision number: any Rev. after the AOO 4.1.0 spin (1589052) is a change.

There has been no reason to reconfigure and generate a snapshot of trunk--the Windows snapshot remains at rev 1585021.
It takes time and effort to bundle and generate the full snapshot builds that include processing of pootle L110n language localizations. When needed, running the snapshot is voted by the dev community with PMC guidance. The snapshot serves a different (or rather broader) function than nightly buildbot builds.
Other than localization support, the nightly buildbots provide the install packages for QA and testing purposes. The Windows nightly builds are semi-automated--and absent an infrastructure or break in configuration--they run regularly.
Currently the Windows nightly is at rev. 1595498.
