I would like to propose a >> 30 minute talk for this devroom, about how we organize/centralize our >> infrastructure via XWiki applications, such as the IRC bot, the SVN and >> GIT applications etc, thanks to XWiki’s powerful development >> capabilities. More precisely: >> >> >> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> >> Title: >> Coping with the proliferation of tools within your community >> >> Abstract: >> Following modern practices for software development and community >> management requires a plethora of tools, from source code handling to >> means of communication. Every tool has its purpose, and is necessary for >> things to run smoothly. Discarding any of them from the workflow is not >> an option. Yet, keeping track of everything can be overwhelming, >> especially for new members of your community who have to learn not just >> the internals of the code, but also the chock-full of tools around it, >> and the rules associated with each of them. >> >> One of the solutions we found for our community is to implement a >> “developers’ wiki”, where most of the tools are either integrated, or, >> for the more simple ones, implemented directly in our wiki. In this talk >> I’ll quickly explain how a development wiki works. I’ll then present our >> wiki-centered infrastructure, which brings together the SCM repository, >> mailing lists, issue trackers, the IRC/XMPP channels, even lower level >> tools for virtual machine management and resource consumption >> monitoring, and offers simple solutions for blog and forum hosting, >> voting, extensions hosting, and much more. Finally, I’ll show how this >> approach for infrastructure management improves the workflows within our >> community and facilitates the integration of newcomers. >> >> >> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >> >> Please let me know if you have any comments/suggestions. >> >> Also, do consider submitting other proposals relevant for the theme of >> the devroom. The deadline is this Sunday, December 23rd. >> >> [0] https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2012-November/001656.html >> [1] http://fosdem.org/2013/ >> -- >> Sergiu Dumitriu >> http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ >> _______________________________________________ >> devs mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs >> > > > > -- > Ludovic Dubost > Founder and CEO > Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ > XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com > Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost > > -- Ludovic Dubost Founder and CEO Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
