Re: Questions about demo instances [was Re: Summary of some recent discussions around the OFBiz release roadmap and some proposals]

Pierre Smits
This is a reasonable compromise.

My suggestion for the URL regarding the latest stable release:
http(s)://demo.ofbiz.apache.org
or:
http(s)://demo-ofbiz.apache.org

Regards,

Pierre

This will not change, it was already difficult to get the names from ASF/infra, sot it will still be trunk, stable and old, with
currently stable=10 and old=9

Christian worked on it this morning and got both stable and old running R10.04 (branch).  They are now running R9.04 (branch). I
guess he crossed an issue, or did not want to have stable running 10 already, Christian?

Running branches allows to run revisions with as less bugs as possible
