I suppose my design just want page name to look important - at least like H1 on my wide screen. >> I've started collecting Wiki issues at >> http://code.google.com/p/pydotorg/issues/list?can=1&q=label:Area-Wiki >> exactly for the purpose of collaboration.

Python bug tracker is out of question - see http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue340 Basically that's the main reason for Google Code project to appear. Consider it personal preference, but I find BitBucket tracker more ugly and less powerful - like there is no way to start an issue. > [...] > >> Moin project is moving towards 2.x version.

Without some kind of visual tool that displays changesets from different clones in different colors, it is a mess. If some revision from your clone is merged as a patch into main repository, you will still have a different branches. They can only merge your branch, but you probably have a lot of other stuff in this branch. There is no such thing as independent patches - there is still history line, and even subsequent commits in your clone are completely unrelated, you still don't have an option to merge just related commits and mark them as merged. That's my understanding how Mercurial works and I am afraid there is no cherry picking to help with keeping modifications in sync with upstream. So it is better to keep separate patches. -- anatoly t. _______________________________________________ pydotorg-www mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pydotorg-www
