Hi, What is the best way to host this project on code.google.com?:
a) Creating a separate project,
+ We can manage the project ourselves e.g. we can add/remove
contributers and committers ourselves.
- Managing the project independently will cause sink problem in
future. For example it will be difficult to keep track of update being done
in java client.
- In future if we have to merge the code to the main project
(orkut-os-client), we lose the development history.
b) Working on a clone of orkut-os-client
+ Merging to main project in future will be easy without loosing
development history.
- Difficulty in managing the team. We will have to disturb and get
approval of orkut-os-client owner to add committers and contributers.
+ I hope, as contributors or committers, we will get notifications of
changes being done in orkut java client lib, so easy to be in sync.
Regards,
Devendra
