Amarok and Konversation were also the first to move to Gitorious.org back then, they're kinda the projects we use to test stuff - mostly because with Jeff and me they both have core developers who are mem- bers of the sysadmin team, so there is a very direct conduit in the case of problems (i.e. the ones who have them get to fix them). And problems there are. For example, just the other day Amarok was unable to create its beta release tag when they wanted to, due to a small bug in a server-side hook script (since fixed). That's one of many lessons learned on the backs of Amarok and Konvi, so it's not like they get preferential treatment with no downsides. Simi- larly, when they moved to Gitorious.org back then, they lost ser- vices like the BUG: keyword, LXR, EBN and commitfilter initially until that was sorted out with them as test subjects. Another reason is that the test setup currently does not yet run on the final production servers, so there will be another (hopefully brief) interruption of service when things migrate to the final servers. So it's not like we're saying no to screw with you, but because we don't think it's ready yet to bear the brunt of a large-scale mi- gration (it's not like kdebindings is the only subproject eager to get onto git.kde.org atm). -- Best regards, Eike Hein _______________________________________________ Kde-scm-interest mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest
