As it was written in the Book of "Dimitrie O. Paun" dimi@intelliware.ca:
A few more thoughts on the multiple publisher idea, and what we need to do on the server side.
So, let's assume we have a number publishers out there. On server side we need to:
- Maintain a pool of published winetest.exe's
- Implement policy to serve from that pool (on a poll even)
Almost everything is in place to support this already with only some minor changes. In fact, rather than adding stuff I may end up removing some to make it work.
All we do is set a another "cookie" on the winrash side and just make sure it checks with WineHQ about once an hour for a new version. Pretty easy.
