Keep in mind that that is not what Mike is proposing. :-) github has some cleverness that allows both svn and git clients to the same repository. That being said, I think that this is a pretty large discussion: - do we want to move to a DVCS? - if so, which one: hg or git? - if we move, will IU host it, or will we use Bitbucket / github? - what do we do about a bug tracker? - continue to use Trac? - use the bug tracker on Bitbucket / github? - ...? - who will do all the migration work? - official source code migration - existing open ticket migration - user migration - ...probably some other things I'm not thinking of - who will develop the "best practices" guidelines for use of a DVCS? Examples: - is rebasing before committing encouraged/required/discouraged/...etc. - how do we do version release branches -- different repos, or branches within a repo, or ...? - ...etc. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
