Re: [Development] Requesting removal of qtjsondb

Yes, that repo is dead, and I don’t see it coming alive again.

Let’s remove it from qt5.git, mark the repo with an abandoned comment and
maybe commit something into it’s top level directory stating the same. As
far as I remember it’s not too much work to move it to a different
location in gerrit. If that’s the case, I'd move it to some abandoned/dead
tree.

Cheers,
Lars

We have plenty of other code in similar circumstances (qtwayland
pre-5.4, qtpim, ...) that aren't released but may be Some Day (or
might not, if nobody cares about them).

I don't think the URL really says all that much about something
necessarily, and moving things around is a hassle (technically and
socially)

I'd just leave it

Modules that exit from production-ready status need to go through the 
deprecation ladder: first Done, then Deprecated (with possibly a replacement), 
and then finally Removed. The package should be made to compile with future 
versions of Qt. That's what we did for Qt Script Classic, Qt Assistant ADP, 
QHttp, QFtp, etc.

However, let's be clear: QtJsondb never achieved production-ready status. It 
never left pre-alpha state and was never released. There's no one using it. 
Simply remove the link from qt5.git and leave the repo to rot.

It’s the repo hosted on qt-project.org and clones such as qt.gitorious.org that 
I’m wondering about. Leaving qtjsondb at its current URL is not what I would 
expect for something that is not part of the Qt 5 bundle. Do we start a

[Development] Requesting removal of qtjsondb

2014-09-17 Thread Joerg Bornemann
The qtjsondb module is dead. It doesn't build since ages and has zero 
users. As civilized people we should bury our dead.
Therefore I'd like to request the removal of qtjsondb from Qt's mother 
repository.

Please raise any objections here or on codereview:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/95086/


BR,

Joerg

It was one of the modules i was looking forward to while Qt 5.0 was in
development. It seemed to be quite promising at the time.

The alternative to removal is fixing. Are you stepping up? :)
