On a personal note, I'd like to develop it using mercurial rather than
subversion, having discovered that moving from centralised to
distributed source control is almost as liberating as having source
control in the first place. So in terms of logistics, we would keep
http://jbehave.org (which needs some care and attention) on its existing
server and host a mercurial repository there too, and use codehaus's
infrastructure for the mail lists. The jury is out for issue tracking -
I'm not that wild about jira so I'm open to suggestions.
I'd really be interested in trying the distributed scm approach.
Some issues to ponder on for my part are:
- what is the state of IDE integration - really difficult to go back to
state of little or no refactoring support.
- should we do a comparison of hg vs git? I've never tried or looked at
hg before, while I have done of bit of playing around with git. So, no
real experience to offer, just a let's consider what plays best. IMO,
one key factor in the choice would be the interop with existing more
mature SCMs, eg SVN, which have better IDE support.
Food for thought.
Cheers
