Hello, This was mentioned in the gobolinux-recipes list, but it should be discussed in the actual discussion lists.
It's been a while now that GoboLinux recipes are being maintained in a Subversion server instead of being just a directory in a web server where someone (Lucas for the last few years) uploaded tarballs to. http://www.gobolinux.org/websvn/ The idea for this switch was to allow a more collaborative way of developing recipes. We ended up never really going the full distance on this, but Isaac's post on the gobolinux-recipes and Lucas' recent offline period showed that this time is as good as any, so let's do it. The last few days I implemented the missing building blocks: gobolinux.org/recipe-store is now automatically updated, twice a day, from svn, and I wrote some documentation on how recipe commits are done: http://gobo.kundor.org/wiki/How_to_commit_recipes Now what we need is, of course, recipe committers. All frequent recipe contributors are welcome to request an svn account. Even if you're only contributing recipes for a single package you keep track regularly, it's okay -- you could take over as a maintainer for that recipe. Committers also don't need to commit only recipes they wrote, they can also commit to svn recipes submitted by other contributers in the recipes list. Over time I believe it's up to the community of committers to figure out the best way to work collectivelly, but what we need first is to build that community. So, who is in? :) Contact me offlist to request an svn account. -- Hisham _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
