Description

I'm not sure where this message comes from, but I guess Platform/Releng might know. Mohammed, Can you give the exact URL you are using? I assume the message comes during the download process, after you click a download link? I think it is just an old, no longer needed warning ... but, depends on the link you click. And, there should be a "continue" button or something so you can go ahead and download, and use, since, as you say, your OS is greater than. So, are you actually running into a problem? Or, is it that you just think it is a lame warning to get ... that we should detect the OS level, instead of giving the warning to everyone? hey, it comes when i click download. here is the link: https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ Created attachment 257137 [details]
screen shot showing ugly message
Moving to 'community', 'website', for Eclipse Foundation attention. Webmasters, a) I do not think this message is required at all, any more. We put that up for Luna since it was unsigned. b) if we are going to put up any sort of warning, I think we can detect OSX level, and put up message only if users level is in fact "too low". (In reply to David Williams from comment #5) > b) if we are going to put up any sort of warning, I think we can detect OSX > level, and put up message only if users level is in fact "too low". I know you all have a whole library to "detect client" and have not looked at what it provides (easily) but OSX level is clearly part of the "request header", but this little experiment I did on my test system: '[08/Oct/2015:00:18:45 -0400] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 403 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0" But again, I think we can just remove it now. The "signing" warning is not applicable for Mars. And, honestly, I'd have to research what the "minimum" level is for Mars. *might* be higher that 10.5? (But, maybe not, I'm just saying best to remove it, rather than "over warn").
