Simon,

Go with the simplest and easiest solution is my advice.  The important thing is to get to Public Review.

I still don't really see the issue with additional symlinks for the new form of the latest URLs - we're only talking 3 links, and the old forms could be pointed at the new forms as a one-off operation.


However if there's no way that can be done, it looks like we are stuck with our choice of "latest" url file name for the lifetime of SCA 1.1, which is unfortunate.


That leaves us with a couple of choices:


1) Just use the old "latest" URLs; Update the CD02 packages to use to "old" form of the latest URL, and just keep using that.

2) Stop using the new file names altogether; update the CD02 packages to change all file names to the old forms, and post updated cd02-rev3 documents with the old forms of the file names.


1) is least effort but does mean that the latest URLs are not of the same form as the current ones.  Lets discuss this on Thursday and agree what the TC wants to do with this.


Regards, Simon

Hi Simon,

 The URLs for latest are not intended to be changed once established. I maintain a single set of symlinks for each specification.

Regards,

Mary

Mary, what is the issue with having both forms of "latest" URL working?


With CD02, we have the following files that are published, for example for binding.jms:


Existing URLs for published CD01 version:


http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec-cd01.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec-cd01.doc
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec-cd01.pdf

Within those documents, the latest version URLs:


http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec.doc
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-jmsbinding-1.1-spec.pdf

Requested URLs for published CD02 version:


http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec-cd02.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec-cd02.doc
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec-cd02.pdf

Requested latest URLs:


http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec.doc
http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-binding-jms-1.1-spec.pdf

So in order to support the new spelling of the latest URLs, I agree that we should not change the existing documents.  That means that we need to:


1) make the existing latest URLs point at the CD02 versions of the documents.   I assume you would have to do that anyway.

2) create new latest URLs that point at the CD02 versions of the documents.   This does entail some duplication of work if it not possible to redirect the URLs in 1) to these as a one-off process.


Regards, Simon

Hi Anish,

It has nothing to do with Kavi; these files are in a separate web  
space. It's an IT decision / access / management issue.
