We're self-hosting Trac, a MoinMoin Wiki, and a bunch of stuff, and we've had some issues with uptime and spam in the past. And now there is a "forge" written in TurboGears, which provides a solid set of tools we can use:
* tracker, * wiki, * forums/mailing lists, * Mercurial+Git+Svn hosting We also have plans to add a blog and hopefully RSS aggregation, and IRC bot logging. I'm very interested in moving our TurboGears repositories onto the same system as the Tracker so we can get trac-like cross linking back. The new tools are part of the new Sourceforge.net beta, and will eventually come to replace all of the existing sourceforge projects. So, what I'm proposing is that TG itself start using this beta. Since Rick Copeland and I are on the sf.net beta team, we can make sure that we have the features and tools we need to make TG successful. And can at the same time the TG community can help SF.net by becoming an early adopter of these tools, and helping sf.net to prove that these tools are valuable to real open source projects. I'm not suggesting moving the TG.org website, and for the moment I'm not suggesting moving the moin moin wiki. But I would like to immediately move active 2.0 tickets into the new sf.net tracker, along with trac pages, and to move the "canonical" 2.x mercurial repositories from bitbucket to sourceforge.net. If you'd like to get a feel for what the tools on sf.net beta look like you can visit: https://sourceforge.net/p/turbogears/home/ A couple things worth noting about the new sf.net beta: * We can have subprojects for things like tg.devtools. * We can have multiple trackers and multiple repositories, * We can keep 2.x and 1.x development together on the same site, but give them room to have their own tools Let me know if you have any concerns about this, but I think it'll be good publicity both for TG itself, and good for sf.net so I'm pretty sure both sides will put in the necessary work we need to do to make this awesome. -- Mark Ramm-Christensen email: mark at compoundthinking dot com blog: www.compoundthinking.com/blog -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears Trunk" group.
