I'd like to volunteer to help but since I'm in the process of changing jobs
I don't have time to manage the project... If someone does offer to
manage it I'd like to help out and contrib some work... Just out of
curiosity, if someone takes over project management couldn't we use
sourceforge or something similar and just GPL the project or do you truly
want to hand it off to gnu.org???
GarRy....

Subject: Cvswebedit needs to be made GPL/open source. Any volunteers?
Hi Shaun,
The latest version is over a year ago, on
www.mrjc.com
There is no latest version and unfortunately, due
mainly to work pressures,my commitment to cvswebedit
has tailed off. I regret to say that I have not
even made time to incorporate a set of changes Erik
�sthols kindly contributed on Jan 17th. (see
http://www.egroups.com/message/cvswebedit/16?&start=1)
Now - what I would like is someone to volunteer to
manage the process of passing cvswebedit over to the
GPL and its incorporation as a piece of software
managed by their processes. I guess this sort of
handover is a very common request for GNU, however my
attempt at finding a simple form to fill
in on their site (www.gnu.org) was unsuccessful.
I am wanting to hand cvswebedit over to GNU in the
hope that by doing so this makes it easier for others
to contribute their patches to the code.
This contribution process could be performed using
either an installable CVS client (such as WinCVS,
command line CVS or TkCVS) or using a web client
(such as cvswebedit).
I find it so strange, that cvswebedit suffers from not
being collaboratively maintained. After all, it is
precisely this task that it was designed to
help with!
So then, any volunteers? I'll be honest upfront: Right
now I can personally commit very little at the moment
as I have averaged a 65 hour week for the last 2
months. Furthermore, I expect this situation to
continue until Mid August. Ideally a volunteer for
this must have time, know their way around the GNU
processes, and have a good knowledge of CVS, Perl and
cvswebedit.
I am sorry that I cannot be of more help right now.
Regards,
Martin.
