Hi! SourceForge is switching some central project services to a new code base. They are asking us to follow this upgrade, now, and sooner or later, they are going to make the upgrade mandatory.
Well, in theory there is not much to worry about, since all services we use for RKWard will continue working (retirement of the central wiki installation is a _separate_ issue). Even most URLs will continue to work, with the notable exception of the SVN repository. AFAICS, the new SVN repo URL will be http[s]://svn.code.sf.net/p/rkward/code/[trunk] (alternatively, svn://-protocol will be available). Migrating your working copy should not be much of a problem (whether you're using read-only or read-write access), although I can't give you reliable instructions, yet. Basically just svn switch --relocate old_url new_url Anybody who doesn't do this in time should simply receive an error message on the next "svn up", and can read up on the details, then. However, there are also several scripts, and bits of documentation which will have to be adjusted to the new repository URL. and we'll have to make sure to adjust those in a timely manner. I can think of: - MacPorts port and "RKWard on Mac" wiki page - KDE on Windows emerge script - Launchpad repository import (for daily builds, and translation template) - Freshmeat project URLs - Debian package (low priority; the repository URL is included only for reference) - "RKWard SVN" wiki page. Let me know, if you can think of more things to fix. So in order to keep the period of breakage and confusion to a minimum, I suggest to fix a date for the migration. I suggest Jan, 15, roughly around 10:00(am) UTC. That's an entirely arbitrary pick. If you would prefer another date, just say so. I'll take care of triggering the upgrade, and adjusting KDE on Windows, launchpad, freshmeat, and the debian package. Meik, can you take care of the MacPorts port, and all affected wiki pages? Regards Thomas
