Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-04-17 04:32:48 UTC
Since we have a working implementation of a sort of permalinks for respective autobuilds (bug 260403), we need to update the where.xml page. Here is my rough draft for review. Please take a look. thx.

(nightmorph suggested that I CC everyone on this bug because he is on devaway and won't get to it.)

We should stick with just one name for the minimal CD instead of the "Minimal CD/InstallCD" header you have on that page. Calling it 2 different things just confused people. Just call it "Minimal Install CD" or something like that.

You should probably also mention that stages are available there, too. Something like "Gentoo Autobuild Minimal Install CD and Stages".

You might also want to use "ISO" instead of "iso".

Updated with suggestions. Thx for the feedback.

I'll take this.

Infra: is it possible to get bouncer links setup for the /current/ stuff, just like we have in the 2008.0 download section?
Comment 4 nm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-04-24 20:35:51 UTC
Fixed in CVS. Used Jeremy's thing as inspiration; final product differs significantly, though. Removed the 2007.0 stuff. Left in 2008.0 info, for now.

Let us know if we get the nice bouncer links a la 2008.0, and when new arches get working autobuilds.
