Description Gunnar Wagenknecht CLA 2008-04-10 07:38:43 EDT
http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDO_Architecture
- section 'Overview'
- paragraph below the pictures

There is a download link to:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/images/9/92/Cdo-server.zip

This is a ~5.5MB ZIP file. The guys should use the proper infrastructure for project downloads.

Hi Eike, 

can you have a look and remove the link from the page? Can the ZIP file moved to the general download location? 

Thanks!

I will investigate this issue during the weekend.

There's no hard rule for where to post large files on download.eclipse.org, but I'd suggest using:

/home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/cdo/downloads/ (if you want mirroring)
or
/home/data/httpd/archive.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/cdo/downloads/ (if you do not)

On the other hand, this could be a new deliverable w/ each build, if it merits updating every week/milestone, and can be easily assembled via an ant or shell script.

Hi Gunnar,

Ok, I checked it and it seems to be an glitch-through. I removed the link from the text paragraph.

As you can see in http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDO_Server_Installation#Preinstalled_Server_Download I tried to phase out this wiki download some months ago. Sorry for any inconveniences!

Cheers
/Eike

Looks fixed.
