Hi there, a couple of months ago I already announced that suckless.org will be moved to a different host, well the truth is, it will be split into 2 or 3 different hosts soon.
I already got access and am setting up a host which will have the domains code.suckless.org lists.suckless.org and which is intended to host the mercurial repositories of the various tools like wmii, dwm, libixp, dmenu, etc. and the mailing lists dwm@, wmii@, and hackers@ -- I'd like to close wmii-hackers@ because that's somehow obsolete in my impression. This host will also contain all releases and a mercurial web interface to browse the source code. There will also be a second host www.suckless.org dwm.suckless.org wmii.suckless.org which will host the wiki(s?) (which will be editable through a public mercurial repository) of the suckless projects. I'd like to see a split of dwm and wmii in the wiki to have its own realm each, because they haven't got much in common nowadays. The roadmap of the switch looks as follows: 1. In the first step I'm going to switch the repositories to the new host, this means that I need a response of all developers who still contribute in one way or the other to any project to send me an ssh key (I change the new host policy to be more restrictive in the matters of access). I'd like to achieve this until end of next week. So please send me your keys now (please use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for this, we will discuss the details via privmail. 2. In the second step I'm going to switch the mailinglist, this will be by end of next week most likely. Note that the domain of the mailinglists will change to lists.suckless.org to make the move of the www part smooth. 3. In the last step I'm going to replace the current diri with a mercurial-based version, which only comes with a viewer and which does not allow HTTP POST based edits anymore. Contributors can push to a public HTTP-based mercurial repository in the future. I'd like to replace the plan9ports-based diri dependency with an sh-based viewer script only. I'd like to discuss this further with the wmii maintainers. Kris are you ok to scrap the rc-based diri in favor of a simple sh-based viewer script only? As you will notice easily, the separate www-host consideration has been made because of security concerns about the wiki being publicly accessible. I for myself have got a third server which I will use personally only in the future, so no of the above hosts is intended for personal use, except if it's in the scope of the suckless project.
