Comment (by boklm):
After looking at this, my idea is to use a yaml config file to store infos
about all our supported releases, and write a script that we run as part
of the release process that will generate a set of static XML files
containing all the possible update responses, and an .htaccess file
containing apache mod_rewrite rules to redirect the requests to the
corresponding XML file.
I think we will have to generate as many XML files as .mar files we have,
so a question related to this is how we will generate the set of .mar
files for the incremental and non-incremental updates. Do we already have
something for this ?
It seems the tool to generate the mar files will need to know which
versions to support for partial and complete updates, and the responder
script will need the same information, so maybe both should share the same
config file ?
