The actions required from this, as I see them are: 1. eliminate the forwarding of the URL to snapshots. This may require altering the filename of the archive based on earlier discussions about the source forge forwarding logic. Perhaps include snapshot and date in the archive name?
Someone (Rene IIRC) has previously stated that putting a date in the filename would be problematic, as the CI scripts would need to keep looking for a different filename (and the date the CI jobs run might not be the same day as the last snapshot was made). Just putting "snapshot" in the name would be sufficient to show it's not the release, and maintain a stable name for the CI processes to look for.
I'm traveling, and busy, for work this week so I haven't had a chance to look at making those changes. Earliest I can get to it is this weekend. If someone else wants to give it a shot the CI release build script is here: https://github.com/boostorg/release-tools/blob/develop/ci_boost_release.py
That's now done. Ci generated archives now have "-snapshot" as a tag in the file name. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
