So, GNOME is finally moving to SVN. How would that affect Pootle's CVS/SVN integration, in Pootle's current and next versions?

I'm happy with the latest test results and would like to propose a new migration cut-off date: Friday December 29th 2006 at 23:59UTC. This is much shorter notice than I would really like to have given (I was hoping to announce this last week), but this is the best date I can come up with, given the holes in GNOME's schedule and my own. If anyone can come up with a show-stopper problem before then, I'll happily postpone again but we may not have another good chance for many months after that. I'm confident that there won't be any serious problems this time, but if anyone considers this *too* short notice, please suggest a more suitable date. The only thing I can see that might bite a few people will be the 'CVSROOT/modules' vs 'svn:externals' issue. This is not something that can be done automatically before/during the migration AFAICS, so if you are the maintainer of a module that relies on CVSROOT/modules, please read the docs a bit, perhaps experiment a little with the 'svn:externals' properties on svn-test.gnome.org and consider how you want your module to work. You may decide 'svn:externals' isn't appropriate and wish to do things another way (for example, see http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/svn.html#S7.5). Please share your thoughts and findings. Other than that, my latest notes can be found here: http://live.gnome.org/SubversionMigration I'm already pretty sure there aren't going to be any real show-stoppers this time and, so provided there aren't any problems with the proposed new cut-off date I'm looking forward to being able to hack on GNOME in 2007 with a better revision control system :) Cheers, -- Ross _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
