Since providing imagefiles has been a touchy subject in the past --
particularly with ISO images, I'd really like a clear cut answer
before altering the current state.
AFAIK:
1st, the alpha1-candidate will
* gcc2hybrid,
* ISO, VMDK, raw Image.
* built using the "alpha-*" ReleaseBuildProfiles (which will
dictate optional packages and possibly ATA vs IDE)
* not --include-gpl-addons
Now, for the other gcc combinations of gcc2, gcc4, and gcc4hybrid,
what should be done about them?
* continue providing them as "alpha-*" (or a similar profile to be
created, eg "nightly-*")
* provide them as only the basic raw image
* provide ISO's of them? (be it either basic haiku-cd or @alpha-cd)
Should haiku-files.org be restructured?
* creating haiku-files.org/releases/R1Alpha1/index.php
* relocating haiku-files.org/raw, /vm to
haiku-files.org/nightly/raw, /vm, /iso(assuming we want to provide
nightly iso's)
* modifying haiku-files.org/index.php to reflect the above changes
Lastly, if no one objects, i'd like to start providing gcc2hybrid
images of ISO, VMDK, Image. One set with IDE and another with ATA --
as this should help to flesh out the issues between them. Though, i'm
not sure if they should go in a new location, eg,
haiku-files.org/releases/R1Alpha1Candidate/
