Right, I mentioned something related to this in the passing in one of the last week's threads - in my humble opinion the benefits outweigh the potential costs. When Github starts having issues people will build tools to export everything from it. I personally would not worry about that.
But valid point with Logstash. I never got the feeling of fragmentation there. But I just looked and indeed the only thing Logstash uses on Github is the repo. Yet, it doesn't feel fragmented.... I have a feeling that's because I never actually look at logstash.net or logstash.jira.com. I mainly see it through commits people make, so to me it felt like it's all on Github, when in fact it is not. Of course, just because Logstash was mentioned as having a good CONTRIBUTING doc, doesn't mean it should be used as the ideal example. For example, here are 2 projects that are making better use of Github: https://github.com/elasticsearch/kibana https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch Otis -- Performance Monitoring * Log Analytics * Search Analytics Solr & Elasticsearch Support * http://sematext.com/ On Sun, Dec 15, 2013 at 11:39 AM, Rainer Gerhards <[email protected]>wrote: > On Sun, Dec 15, 2013 at 5:31 PM, Otis Gospodnetic < > [email protected]> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > * main repo is on Github, but the issues are in some external Bugzilla > > instance, where users need separate accounts and that cannot cross-link > to > > pull requests or where users cannot easily @GetSomebodysAttentionLikeThis > > > > * some docs are going to be in docs in some Github repo, but there are > also > > docs on rsyslog.com > > > > * Github has a Wiki, but it's not used and there is a separate Wiki on > > rsyslog.com and it requires a separate account (same or different from > > Bugzilla?) > > > > Does this feel like it will be a PITA for contributors and even consumers > > of info stored in all these various places? > > > > > I am glad I blogged about, so here is another reference: > > > http://blog.gerhards.net/2013/12/why-is-rsyslog-project-running-its-own.html > > Comments are welcome. > > Rainer > > > > Otis > > -- > > Performance Monitoring * Log Analytics * Search Analytics > > Solr & Elasticsearch Support * http://sematext.com/ > > > > > > On Sun, Dec 15, 2013 at 3:19 AM, Radu Gheorghe <[email protected] > > >wrote: > > > > > Everything you can see under: > > > www.rsyslog.com/doc/ > > > > > > Is from the rsyslog package: > > > https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/tree/master/doc > > > > > > There's also a wiki one can contribute too (once you create an account > > > which is pretty trivial): > > > http://wiki.rsyslog.com/index.php/Main_Page > > > > > > I guess this ^^^^^^^^ information needs to be somewhere in the "how to > > > contribute" document(s).
