Hi all,
has anyone considered migrating the main BH instance at
https://issues.apache.org/bloodhound to a multi-product setup, and
moving all the BH issues to a product? Doing so would let us create new
products there and migrate other projects over to using Bloodhound,
without having to create a new BH instance for each.
Obviously, I have Subversion in mind here; he move to multi-product
would be only a first step, of course, since we'd have to write a tool
to migrate the issues off Tigris; but that's a different story.

BTW, you do know that repository browsing doesn't work there because the
SVN repository plugin uses an old version of the SVN libs that don't
understand 1.8 format repositories.
Well, it is certainly a long time overdue, yes.
With a naive approach to migration, one side effect of this will be a
change in the base location for all pages associated with bloodhound,
from /bloodhound to /bloodhound/products/BH (or whatever we chose for
the bloodhound prefix). There are likely to be ways around this of
course but it would seem odd to have such a special status if other
projects wish to join us. We need to decide how important this aspect of
the problem is.
I'll start experimenting with the upgrade again to make sure that we can
do it fairly smoothly once all the decisions have been made. I'll also
see if I can work out how to get the svn libs for the 1.8 format. Thanks
for pointing that out.
Cheers,
Gary
