Some of the questions: - how can I see that Cocoon was used?

- how many members did the project team have?




Hi Helma,

You asked previously about what it would take for us to be able to run Cocoon on Apache hardware. At the moment, Apache has something like six machines, and these are guarded (quite rightly) fiercely by the intrastructure team, in order to keep them suitably secure.

There are a lot of projects that would like to have access to Apache hardware, whether for hosting, or for build/test cycles. In part, as a way to cater for this, the infrastructure team is building a couple of those machines to run VMWare ESX - thus they can host multiple operating systems on each machine. ESX is working, but they need to get more HDD/memory for it to handle more VMs. If we have needs for running our own stuff, e.g. having the latest Cocoon samples usable from the Cocoon website, we should make a request to the infrastructure team for a VM for ourselves, as soon as they have done the necessary hardware upgrades.

This would of course require us to choose an OS/distribution (never easy in a diverse community!) and then to maintain it.

Are people interested in pursuing this?

In the meantime, using our existing mechanisms, we should do as Antonio suggested - improve the notes on the livesites page, stating: Put an entry entitled [LINK] Blah into bugzilla, and answer these questions. If you don't answer them, your request will not be considered.

Or something like that. What do you think?

Regards, Upayavira

People could also enter their requests to be listed in

bugzilla with a


[LINK] prefix in the title, so that they don't get lost.


Wow! It is a tipical Bertrand solution: Simple and powerfull. I like it! ;-)

Best Regards,
