I have re-enabled the job. I am surprised
it was disabled (for so long) and surprised no one has mentioned it before
now.

Okay, I see there's a problem...

Solution 1 could be to update /releases/staging more often.
AFAIK the only reason for disabling the promote to Staging job is to give
the main EPP build a chance to rebuild during release week (especially
on Thursday/Friday). From my point of view we could simply re-enable this
job.

And your second proposal could be done, too. The main
reason for using /releases/staging (and /releases/maintenance for the second
release stream) is that we currently have only one Gerrit job for multiple
release streams. We'd need to duplicate the Gerrit jobs, one for every
release stream, and then we could switch to the Hudson URLs. My only concern
is that we've experienced problems with Hudson serving large amounts of
data via its web frontend in the past. But if webmasters are fine with
it now, we could certainly change the URL in our Gerrit job.

Regards,
Markus

Hi,

I have patchsets in mid-air to adapt the content of the Modeling package.
One of those includes a new feature which got introduced in the simrel
repository post M6 [1].

Problem is the "promote to Staging" job has been disabled since
then (see: https://hudson.eclipse.org/simrel/job/simrel.neon.promoteToStaging/)
and I tend to recall (but I can't find the mail) that it was "by design
for a specific purpose" but I'm not sure which.

Anyway this prevents me from getting "fresh content" into the
package and I can't get my patchset in without staging being promoted in
some way or I would break all the other packages builds.

That makes me wonder, should I do things differently ? And why not using
https://hudson.eclipse.org/simrel/job/simrel.neon.runaggregator.BUILD__CLEAN/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/aggregation/final/as the input to the epp-tycho-build.gerrit job ?
