KDE-Windows Meeting: Notes

Started: jstaniek 11:40, 15 September 2007 (CEST)

Topics:

  • reducing distribution of the file by keeping a snapshot of files on our server(s)
    • this makes mirroring possible
  • having two or more main directories on the server: one for current stable release, one for 'unstable/testing' one
  • development installation requires tools having own installers
    • ideally this should not be the case for end-user installation, otherwise updating would be hard (user would be forced to uninstall prev. version of an external app and install a new one in the same place...)
