Dear developers,
The website supports developers submitting releases using the releases app, we haven't linked to the releases app publically, but thanks to Maren and others it's a mostly complete history of Inkscape package files.
To upload an inkscape package:
a) Go to the website and login b) Click the "Upload Art or Resource" (or click Submit in any of your galleries to better organise your files) c) Fill in all the fields you want, make sure to include the uploaded file and gpg signature. d) Select "Inkscape Package" in the category drop down. e) Save.
f) Now re-edit the new upload.
This will give you the two new fields of "Release" and "Platform", these ONLY appear if: The upload is in the Inkscape Package category AND you have permission to edit releases. If you don't see these fields, make sure you join the releases team at https://inkscape.org/en /*release-team and try again.
You can only have ONE resource per release, per platform. So the Inkscape 0.92.2pre0 release can have ONE Win32 MSI Package, ONE Mac OSX 10.9 DMG, etc etc. If you try to over-write, it will deny you setting the platform and release fields.
We're going to try and keep the permissions to one person for each of the main platforms. So bryce can do source uploads, tgh can do Mac uploads etc etc. We make have some backups, but user wise it shouldn't need every developer to be a release team member.
Let me know if you have issues.
Best Regards, Martin Owens Your Friendly Website Admin

We typically have at least 6 releases for Windows (x64/x86, .7z/.exe/.msi), if you add the portable Version even more. I'm unsure if/how this could work?
How will this look download-wise (i.e. will our current download pages continue to exist or are those supposed to be replaced by the releases app somehow?). I'm asking because we have a lot of additional information on all of the download pages.

Hi Eduard,
These are good questions.

Upload each of the variants, select the right platform variant in the drop down.

They are meant to replace the pages. Each of the platform pages (and parents) have fields for filling in this extra information which is presented to users when they download.
Do you want to configure the windows information ready for live?

Thanks Maren and Martin. I misunderstood Martin's earlier comment then (I thought we could only upload one Windows release in total). I wasn't able to see the UI as I'm not a member of the releases team yet. I requested membership now.

OK, great! Just wanted to make sure we'd not end up in a state where we couldn't inform users about the (sometimes dirty ;-) ) details of our releases.
How would one add the Microsoft App-Store version? (Not that I'm particularly fond of it, but we don't have a file to link here...)

I intended to play with 0.92.2pre0 in preparation of the release.

I am traveling this weekend, but will be keeping an on out for the Windows uploads so I can prepare the PortableApps package. I have also requested membership in the releases team to allow for appropriate editing of the PortableApps package when uploaded.
Thanks, Gord

- Probably as a link. The underlying infrastructure is there to support it, only the interface doesn't work as expected yet.

Martin (or someone else who can do so),
Could you please delete any versions of InkscapePortable_0.92.3.paf.exe from the website backend, so I can re-upload a package with the exact same filename without it being renamed? I've been advised of a bug in the portable package, fixed it, but when I attempt to upload the revised package after removing the original resource, django renames the newly uploaded resource as the same filename was previously used.
Thanks, Gord
Hi Gord,
The process is a manual one because of the fastly cache invalidation.
I've removed the files, let me know when you have a new version there and I'll invalidate the cache.
Martin,
