Dear ka-Mappers ...
OSGeo has indicated that they are willing to provide SVN/Trac
services to the ka-Map project. I will let Lorenzo lead from here
since this is his initiative, but I personally support the move to
SVN because I find it much easier to work with and I am impressed
with the tight integration of Trac with SVN.
There are a lot of things to discuss concerning this:
* moving the source code repository from MapTools CVS to SVN. There
are some choices when we do this:
- use SVN only for new development, leave existing code in CVS
- use SVN for all existing source and new development (the
intention would be to preserve the history from cvs)
- don't move anything
* moving issue tracking to Trac. There are some choices here too:
- continue to use bugzilla (don't bother with Trac)
- start fresh in Trac (don't bring existing stuff across).
Bugzilla ka-Map product would be left in place and closed for bug entry.
- attempt to bring all bug history into Trac. Bugzilla ka-Map
product would be closed for bug entry and, if possible, deleted
* moving wiki to Trac. There are some choices:
- Move the ominiverde wiki into Trac. Trac is a wiki as well as
an issue tracking system.
- continue to use ominiverde wiki and use Trac only for issues
* moving ka-Map MapTools web site content into Trac ... I don't think
we should do this as we attract a lot of attention from people going
through MapTools ...
Please give some feedback ...
Cheers,
Paul
