NamesList-17.0.0d2.html

[markusicu]

from Ken, just updating version 16 to 17

[eggrobin]

I see we ran out of full stops to put at the end of Reissued for Unicode n in the 16.0.0 cycle. We should buy some more full stops…

[Ken-Whistler]

As expected.

@josh-hadley @echeran @eggrobin is the build failure real? Is something grabbing the version number from NamesList.html and fails if something else is not yet on the same new version??

[eggrobin]

I certainly hope nothing looks at NamesList.html, and it is far too late for me to try to understand the build failure. But not too late for me to rerun the build and go to bed…

I'm not exactly sure what is reading what but the failure is in a command that comes after this:

unicodetools/UnicodeJsps/Dockerfile

Line 7 in 560c290

ARG CVERSION=16.0.0

Do we need to set that to 17.0.0? (probably)

Probably not actually, because it is used to get something from https://www.unicode.org/Public/PROGRAMS/BidiReferenceC/, which has no 17 (it is updated after the release, BRS steps R80 sqq.).

I reran the build, it worked.

I noticed last night that various bits of the unicode.org website were extremely flaky (while looking at reports I got them without the CSS, the index of https://www.unicode.org/Public/ would sometimes fail to load and sometimes fail to show the icons for the parent directory etc.).

Yeah, something was redlining the server, I suspect. I had a lot of trouble loading things, too.
