Hello,
I've set up a github organization at https://github.com/sup-heliotrope
for managing sup, heliotrope, turnsole and any needed bit in the
future. I've already added Hamish Downer (known as foobacca on github)
as an administrator; he has the rights to do whatever is needed on the
organization. Feel free to give me your github account names and I
will add you to the administrators team. I believe this is doable for
the moment because we are only a few people interested in
sup/heliotrope. If (when !) the popularity grows, we might want to
change the governance model.
I've been quite hesitant to use github because of the closed model (I
like running my own thing if possible) and wanted to run my own
redmine. However, github offers many advantages (uptime, speed, quick
visibility) and the data isn't that closed : wiki are just plain text
in git that can be exported, and there are more than complete APIs [0]
for issues. However, I'd like to keep the wiki in Hamish's ikiwiki
because I like it much better (but this is just personal preference)
I took the liberty of creating a repo for sup, which is just a
straight copy of git://gitorious.org/sup/mainline.git. I must admit I
don't follow sup's development that much, so feel free to do what you
want there. I've also set up a repo for sup with master being
William's master branch. I'm quite attracted to the git-flow [1]
model; I propose we follow it, and have therefore created a develop
branch which is just a branch at the same level as master. Please,
feel free to fork develop and code/test over it. I already have a
bunch of propositions to do and will soon put them in the repo (I just
realized my own repo was way too dirty to put it up now)
William, I know you are alive and well thanks to your tweetstream; If
you read this, I hope you won't take this organization as a treason of
any sort. It's just that the lack of activity on your repo is too
saddening for the development of heliotrope.
I'm sure we can do it.
See you soon,

Hi,
I think this is a step in the right direction - given that there has
been silence on wmorgans part so long.
Kepping things in one place does work alot better, even if it means
sacrificing a few features - I think that keeping the wiki along with
the rest of the organization is the best. Also github is not linked or
dependant on any one admin / developer, so I think for this kind of
project it is ideal - expanding to a proper web site is no biggie with
github either, making future possible migration even easier.
I'd like to be part of the organization, but I am probably not going to
be active enough to be an administrator, github name: gauteh.
Cheers, Gaute

OK, I've set up a team called committers (with commit access to all
repos) and added you. Also happy to make you an owner if you want.
I'm don't have strong views on where the wiki should be, but it would
be nice if people can just go and edit it with minimal fuss. It looks
like you'd have to be given access to edit the github wiki, so a bit
of a higher barrier to entry which I would prefer to not put in
people's way. But if we change our minds later (or if everyone
prefers it) then I have the pages as markdown, so transferring it
across to the github wiki would be very little work.
Right, should probably go and dig up various patches I've copied off
the email list that I wasn't sure about and turn them into pull
requests to open up discussion on them.

I've started doing that with 4 well formatted patches I wasn't
entirely sure about (3 from Gaute) and put my comments on those pull
requests. If I get good answers we can merge them.
Got a few more diffs I'll have to get to another night.
