uh.. should I deduce from the lack of answer that you prefer to move
out from gnome.org ? Or maybe you're just pondering :)

OTOH: are sure sure that we should add launchpad to the stack? We
already have gnome.org, sf.net and wikia.com - wouldn't it introduce
more uncertainty about where the sawfish is really hosted?

Looks like you will sit there wondering what to do, unless I'll push you a little bit :) And that's what we need - more developers with write access. It will speed up development process considerably. So now you will go to http://live.gnome.org/NewAccounts and ask for account. Give my email in there and gnome team will ask me for confirmation. When John decided to give me write access it happened exactly this way, and it took 2 weeks to wait for gnome team to respond! Don't forget to attach your id_rsa.pub key. Here's the email I sent, and you will need to write a similar one: Janek Kozicki said: (by the date of Sat, 30 Jun 2007 22:06:22 +0200) > Hello > > I am requesting an SVN account for sawfish development. > The email address of current sawfish maintainer John Harper is: > > John Harper <jsh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > He shall confirm my application. > > > Full name: Janek Kozicki > > Permanent email address: cosurgi@xxxxxxxxx > > Requested account name: jkozicki > > The type of account you are requesting: > > Maintarneship of sawfish project. > John Harper has decided to step away, see message in the mailing list > archive: > > http://mail.gnome.org/archives/sawfish-list/2007-June/msg00044.html > > I will take care of this project.

So now, Timo and Scott it depends on you if you will sent that account request or not. But also Andrea and Christopher please feel invited too! As I mentioned - GSR already has a write access and doesn't need to send such request. About moving to another repo (be it GIT or BZR), we will see how things evolve. The current problem is that you don't have a write access and it needs to be solved first. -- Janek Kozicki

Re: sawfish development tools

Wow, quick summary: - Timo: uses GIT mirror because he has no write access to SVN - Scott: uses BZR for the same reason. Additionally I'd tell that Scott likes BZR more than Timo likes GIT. A surprisingly simple solution: - I will ask gnome.org admins to create accounts for you both so you get a write access. - Later gnome will move to BZR which will make Scott more happy, than it'd make Timo unhappy :) - we can couple that with giving you the access to sourceforge.net project page, just create your accounts there. how do you like it? And then we will have more people with the same access level as me. It will make things easier and faster. -- Janek Kozicki |

It seems fine, that way (for now) we keep more focused in improving sawfish than in discovering what tool is better. BTW, if you do not mind, I will go reviewing patches, if something is obvious (one or two extra votes on top of creator one, simple change), I will commit it. GSR
