I see that this has four branches. What about all the other branches? Will they be converted, or not? What about the stuff outside /python? In particular, the Stackless people have requested that they move along with what core Python does, so their code should also be converted. > - Add Mercurial support to the issue tracker. Not sure what this means. There is currently svn support insofar as the tracker can format rNNN references into ViewCVS links; this should be updated if possible (removed if not). There would also be a possibility to auto-close issues from the commit messages. This is not done currently, so I would not make it a prerequisite for the switch. > - Setup temporary svn mirrors for the main Mercurial repositories. What is that? > - Augment code.python.org infrastructure to support the creation of > developer accounts. One option would be to carry on with the current setup; migrating it to hg might work as well, of course. > - Update the release.py script. > > There is probably some other things that I missed Here are some: - integrate with the buildbot - come up with a strategy for /external (also relevant for the buildbot slaves) - decide what to do with the bzr mirrors Regards, Martin _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
