All,

# Announcement

Based on Dave and Chip's emails, it looks prudent to make the switch to the
ASF repository as soon as possible, as part of the ongoing incubation
process for Brooklyn. Therefore, after Friday 30 May 2014, the existing
GitHub repository accessed via the 'brooklyncentral' account will NO LONGER
be accepting pull requests. Instead we will be switching to the ASF Git
repository for 'incubator-brooklyn' as the main repository of record. This
repository will be mirrored to two READ-ONLY repositories on GitHub,
against which pull requests can be opened. During Friday we will work to
merge the current set of outstanding pull requests.

For more details of the workflow, please see the ASF documentation here:

- http://www.apache.org/dev/git.html

Note that from now on, all new branches SHOULD be associated with a JIRA
issue on the BROOKLYN project and named appropriately, with a reference in
the pull request title or commit test.

We will document the specific workflow and environment for Brooklyn as part
of the new Brooklyn project site on apache.org, and would appreciate any
comments or suggestions.

# Useful URLs

The new Git repository can be cloned from these URLs. Make sure your
repository working copies, forks and remotes are updated appropriately, and
ensure any local WiP branches are copied across.

- https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/brooklyn.git
- git://git.apache.org/incubator-brooklyn.git

Repository browsing over HTTP is available here:

- https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-brooklyn.git;a=summary

The GitHub repositories are here:

- https://github.com/apache/incubator-brooklyn.git
- https://github.com/brooklyn/brooklyn.git

The Brooklyn JIRA project is here:

- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN/

# Actions

Note that contributors MUST have signed an ICLA or waived any rights to the
code they are contributing.

The old Brooklyn repository will be tagged and frozen, and renamed to
'legacy-brooklyn' and all commit rights will be removed at the time of the
switch-over. The other repositories maintained by the 'brooklyncentral'
account will remain available, but we would welcome discussion and
suggestions about which could be moved to the 'brooklyn' account, such as
'brooklyn-examples' and similar.

- https://github.com/brooklyncentral/brooklyn/
- https://github.com/brooklyncentral/legacy-brooklyn/

The existing job that is mirroring from the GitHub 'brooklyncentral'
account will be turned off, but the mirroring jobs in the opposite
direction, to the 'apache' and 'brooklyn' GitHub accounts will continue.

The disposition of the documentation and website code is still to be
determined.

Please bear with us as we make this transition, and check with the PMC if
you have any issues getting started or if I have missed anything out from
this announcement.

Thanks,
Andrew (Apache Brooklyn PMC)
