There were two repositories. You destroyed, by ignoring, commits to those repositories. You've done it several times now; but I'm not surprised, as you aren't an activity maintainer yet. GTK+ is the name to the toolkit according to both The GTK+ Project and Wikipedia. It deserves a "+" because

I really wish you would be a bit more careful with the facts. There was no repository for this activity, so it is impossible that i destroyed anything. Why would you merge translations from one activity to another when neither has been ported to GTK3? Porting to GTK3 (no evidence that it

You repeated that I destroyed something. Ignoring commits does not mean there was destruction. I apologize again for my ignorance of the fact that people were developing and maintaining activities in cyberspace. Git history or no, the important point is to have working activities available to

TL;DR. Too long, didn't read. What I did read doesn't match with the situation and practice; and you're not an activity maintainer, so I don't think you know what you are talking about. Development process is optimised for activity maintainers, not integrators and certainly not users. If any

Naturally it is easy to comment on what you haven't read. When you propose a change to practice - it certainly isn't going to match. Current practice finds us with almost 80 activities which have been ported to GTK3 and which are not available to users via ASLO. I am an activity maintainer -

Hi James and all, let me deliberately sidetrack the issue at stake with a larger issue which I'm curious about: what is the current activity status of Sugar? Since I've been unsubscribed from the list a few years ago (because my @laptop.org alias somehow died), I've missed a lot. I'm aware of

2018-05-21 Thread James Cameron
The situation of unreleased yet ported activities is not a consequence of process, but of missing-in-action activity maintainers, and porting by GCI and GSoC. Your choice not to contribute your time for this is noted. It is a tempting move; I could simplify my work by focusing on maintaining
