Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-18914:
------------------------------------
My usual approach to deleting old stuff is:
For Final stuff:
* move contents
* symlink or composite site link from the old location (/targetplatforms/) into the new location (/static/targetplatforms/)
For pre-Final stuff:
* move into an OLD or DEPRECATED folder
* wait to see if anything breaks:
** if it does, move back out of DEPRECATED folder, then
** use symlink or composite site link, as above
* if nothing has broken for over a year, clean out the DEPRECATED folder

> Related to JBDS-3208, I'd like to purge all the unneeded old target platforms in [0].

> Specifically, this would involve moving and re-linking these into the equivalent folder under /static/ [1]:
> {code}
> [DIR] 3.62.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 3.72.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.20.5.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.20.6.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.21.3.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.21.4.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.22.0.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.22.1.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> [DIR] 4.22.2.Final-SNAPSHOT/
> {code}
> Then we can purge all the 4.\{3?,4?}.\*.\*-SNAPSHOT folders for all the pre-Final builds; the rest should already be in /static/, but we can verify that and move any that are not already there. Really, we only need the handful of *.Final folders, and they should all be in /static/ [1].

> I believe we can also purge things like 4.40.0.Beta* from here [2]:
> [2] http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/static/targetplatforms/jbosstoolstarget/
> But for that one we need to verify that [~pleacu] doesn't still need them (ie., they're not used for an older JBTIS/JBDSIS Beta release build on Eclipse 4.4.0 / JBoss Tools 4.2.0.
