Kim et al,
Denis and I spoke about this yesterday. Once
the mirrors have replicated the bits then I’ll make sure the download
page gets updated with the new packages.

Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Europa maintenance
Just to clarify, has everyone agreed to the plan to
have all projects push their content to the servers at Thursday noon EDT as the
Nick suggested? So am I to assume that the the synchronization
between the server nodes will be frozen before noon - what time? A
confirmation from the Eclipse foundation would be appreciated :-)
In
the past, making a release available without mirror replication has caused the
servers and webmasters to overheat so I'd like to avoid that.

If
last year is any indication of how this year will go, trying to do
all the promotes on Friday at the same time
everyone starts
downloading the Fall Maintenance bits will be
madness -- maxed
bandwidth, broken uploads, broken downloads,
frustrated users, etc.
Can we implement a Thursday cutoff for mirror
synching like we did in
June? That is, +2 projects will have their final
bits on the server by
noonish on Thu, so that there's 24hrs for mirror
replication before
the public release on Friday.
Are +2 projects ok with losing a day from the
schedule?
If so, we should also update the Winter
Maintenance schedule to do the same.
