    Probably do not need to create demos. Instead link to the demos on the Build server.

    We need a way of giving instructions on how to use the demos though. Otherwise the transition from the Fluid website to the demo site may be a bit confusing.

    I talked to Anastasia about this and we agree that linking to the build server is not ideal because at any given moment the build could be broken or in a state not for public consumption.

    We agreed that, ideally, demos should be in a different space and using the latest stable release rather than a nightly snapshot.

    The best place to host this would be on the Fluid web space. We would create a new subdirectory and host the latest release JS files there and create the appropriate index pages and decorations to make the demos appropriate as an outreach tool.

    Time estimate:

    • 1/2 day to set up the web space and to have files hosted and have basic demos.
    • 3/4 day for page design, instructions

    Demos are now located on the Fluid website. This page (http://fluidproject.org/index.php/demos) references a copy of the demos extracted into a release directory.

    With each new release:

    • archive the existing Demos page
    • extract a copy of the source code into the releases' directory.
    • update the Demos page links to reference the new sample code.
    • add any new Demos
    • add a link from the Demos page to the Demos just archived (step 1).

    (Added above release process to the Release Process wiki page).

    Still no instructions on how to use the demos, but it's getting better.
