Revision Launch Checklist

The purpose of this page is to create a checklist of things that need to happen every time a new revision is launched.

Patch Updates

These steps need to be taken every time a new major Minecraft patch is released. (Everything here is accurate as of the 1.5 release patch.)

Infrastructure

• Make sure CraftBukkit is updated (we usually wait for at least a beta build, if not recommended): http://dl.bukkit.org/downloads/craftbukkit/
• Update NerdBukkit (used on Creative only)
• Update wrappers
• Make sure every server has the proper configuration of fully-updated plugins (see below)

Nerd-developed Plugins

The following chart shows which plugins developed by this community are used on each server. They each need to be updated and tested extensively (on temp chaos or some other temp server) for the new patch.

Plugin	C	P	S
CommandBlock	X	X	X
CommandHelper	X	X	X
KitchenSink	X	X	X
LolNo	X	X	X
MCBouncer	X	X	X
MobLimiter		X

NerdMessage	X	X	X
NerdSpawn	X	X	X
NoLog			X
PlumpXP			X
removeframes	X
SafeBuckets		X	X
TPControl	X	X	X

Non-Nerd-developed Plugins

The following chart shows which plugins NOT developed by this community are used on each server. For these, we generally need to either wait for the plugin to be updated for the new patch, then test it extensively (on temp chaos or some other temp server) for the new patch. If the plugin is relatively simple and not critical to operation, it might be sufficient to try running the existing version of the plugin on the next patch.

Revision Launches

These steps should be taken every time a new revision is launched.

Technical Steps

• Take backup of previous map, and upload it to nerd.nu/backups
• Use previous map backup to generate and post a final cartograph
