Hi community,
over the last months I observed the following:
* people not finding our git repositories
Searching on ixquick:
'calligra git' https://community.kde.org/Calligra/Git
'kde git' https://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitKdeOrgManual
'kwin git' https://github.com/faho/kwin-tiling
'plasma git' https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Development
Searching on Google:
'calligra git' https://community.kde.org/Calligra/Building/2
'kde git' https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Git
'kwin git'
http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2014/04/kwin-moved-to-an-own-repository/
'plasma git' -> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plasma-desktop-git/
Wow... "krita git" leads to
https://www.kde.org/applications/graphics/krita/development
Which I didn't even knew existed and wouldn't know how to update with the
new icon, a better text, a link to the Cat's guide for building Krita from
git. That's not so good :-(
On google the highest link to github was in position 4. Not too bad.
There was no link to https://projects.kde.org/ or https://quickgit.kde.org/
What part of the KDE infrastructures can be fixed to make the repositories
easier to find?
* people being surprised that our code is not on github
This is good moment to educate them on the ideals of KDE.
People even get pissed that we're not on github, github is, after all the,
Official Git Place. They don't trust a git repo that's not on github...
