We have private partial mirrors of various repositories which we
use for testing packages and then to install the packages on each
box. These private partial mirrors are synced nightly.
Because of a bug in lftp we can't use Tim's neat redirector and
instead we mirror Trinity from mirrorservice.org.
Last night there was no change in our partial Trinity mirror.
The night before some old files were deleted but no new files
were added.
The night before that mirroring seemed to be working normally.
It brought in a few dozen files from tdeartwork and tdebase.
Also I see nightly builds updating on mirrorservice.org. I
wonder if RC2 updates are backed up behind nightly build
updates. If so I wonder if it would be better to serve the
volatile but lightly used nightly builds directly so that
the less volatile and more heavily used releases could more
readily migrate to the public mirrors.

All,
TDE will be entering its last hard freeze for R14.0.0 Final at 06:00 GMT
on 12/08/2014. After that time no further commits will be accepted,
R14.0.0 will be tagged in GIT, and pre-release tasks will start.
If you can please help update the release notes at
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Release_Notes_For_R14.0.0
Thanks!
Tim

Tim,
on the main website, there are a couple of things to improve IMO.
1) the link "Bugs" currently points to "https://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=ALL" which will
automatically load a long list of bugs resulting in a long loading time. It would be better if it simply pointed to
"https://bugs.trinitydesktop.org" so the loading time would be shorter and the user could choose by him/herself what to
look for.
2) in the mailing list page https://www.trinitydesktop.org/mailinglist.php, I think the "suggestions" about
High/Moderate/Low traffic could be removed. For example the Dev ML has a higher traffic than the User ML, but the
"suggestions" are saying the opposite.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers
Michele

Patches that change large portions of the source code will not be merged,

general userbase to catch regressions introduced by any patches merged in
this window, so make sure you have get it right the first time!***
This merge window will close 12/07/2014 to allow for R14 FINAL build and
release. Please concentrate all efforts on the unresolved bugs blocking
Bug 2014.
Thanks!

Tim, Slavek,
can the attached patch be pushed? It updates the Release Notes document to mirror the one on the Etherpad and include
the major changes stated in the Release Notes webpage on the TDE site.
Cheers
Michele
Tim,
can I push the attached patch? It fixes the installation of kcontrol module handbooks in tdenetwork in Debian/Ubuntu,
which are currently not installed. The patch is for the packaging repo.
Cheers
Michele
Tim,
shouldn't TDE be freedesktop.org compliant by now? I wonder why it is not listed in the freedesktop.org desktop list.
Any idea? Perhaps we need to "remind" them?
Cheers
Michele
