Comment (by robatino):
Replying to [comment:4 kevin]:
content is being staged, you start making disos, some mistake is
found,
recompose is started, but people start downloading bad/invalid/not
released disos?
People would know that anything in the staging area isn't guaranteed
correct until moved to the final location. It could be visible on a trial
basis. If too many people ignore the warnings about checking their
downloads and waste time filing invalid bugs, we could then hide the
staging area.
So, I think we should follow option 1, use a staging area and disos
can
be done once that content is in place.
I would think waiting a few minutes really wouldn't be that much
burden.
It usually takes closer to an hour to both create and verify the disos,
not a few minutes. For Alpha TC1 it's more like 2 hours.
