Hello,

it is nice to have a thread to which everyone can contribute something.

I just went through using git for a local project (and registered for a git 
repository on
berlios.de for the moment we are going to publish about it). If you have used 
bazaar
before, the migration seems straightforward. But I am using only its basic 
functionality,
as it seems.

The other side is that my contribution to pkg-boinc (as little as it was) has 
come to a
complete standstill since its migration to git. Just something has not worked 
the way I
thought it would work and I was too busy since to digest everything properly 
... there are
other ways I can contribute to the community more efficiently.

svn I consider sufficient for now, as long as we don't experience any larger 
complexity of
our projects. The "community" folder is more of a concern to me. Concerning
reorganisation, it may be helpful to have some package flocking together a bit 
more. For
instance, my mgltools packages I have combined into one big subfolder. The perl 
packages
could go into one, too (bioperl, bioperl-run, ... and dependencies like gbrowse 
for
instance).  But this is nothing we need to discuss at large, I'd say, the 
individual
(active) maintainers should just be given the freedom to prepare such 
subfolders when they
see their suite of software to be represented properly that way.

Best,

Steffen
