While you make plenty of valid points about Contegix, it's
completely unrelated to what I'm arguing for.
How is starting to move things away from Contegix, which is you
suggestion, not related? The subsequent argument would then be made
that we already started this process so why not move the rest. Of
course it's related.
If you are successful in bringing them in to the ASF infrastructure
as you've proposed, it should be a no-brainer to move a cwiki space
to that infrastructure. So that's a non-issue as far as this
discussion is concerned.
We're better off on cwiki than where we are now. We have no admin
privileges (I'm currently locked out of editing the CONTINUUM space)
Did you ask? I asked Ben for JIRA privs and that took 5 minutes.
, and the setup is not conducive to deploying into the Apache site.
cwiki is already running the stuff we need. People I trust
recommend it.
The stuff is a plugin which can be installed in any Confluence
instance. So that's not an onerous task.
We've wanted to do this for months, and this is an avenue that
actually makes it easier for us - I continue to suggest we take it.
I'm simply not in favour of moving anything away from Contegix.
Taking the output from the export plugin and scp'ing it to people is
not hard either.

Similar to what Emmanuel suggested, how about we move *all* the
current spaces to cwiki, avoiding any further fragmentation, and
in fact removing the current fragmentation between the apache
site and the codehaus confluence, as well as getting all of the
above benefits?
Before biting the bullet we can do a trial with this single SCM
page.
What do folks think?
I think it's a bad idea to move from a stable setup we have with
great support from people who have helped us at every turn. I
would like to suggest we stay with Contegix wherever possible and
this discussion is still ongoing with infra and they have yet to
get back with SLA policies. I believe it is in the best interest
of users and the community to provide the best infrastructure as
possible and there is no doubt in my mind that is Contegix. For
anything we have ever done for JIRA, Confluence or the Central
Repository they have been there for us. We gain nothing by moving
any of this to Apache.
Contegix has run JIRA and Confluence for us when these services
were not available at Apache and they have been more than
accommodating when we needed a new repository infrastructure.
I have been trying to incorporate Contegix officially into the
infrastructure at Apache so that we can keep everyone happy. I am
not willing, nor do I support any move to Apache without infra
deciding their policies, nor am I overly excited about the
possibility of any of our infrastructure being moved to a place
where no one is really accountable. Contegix is responsible,
accountable, a pleasure to work with and they have bent over
backward to help us. We are relying on Jeff Turner who is already
overworked in trying to manage our setup whereas at Contegix we
have a team who are very knowledgeable about Atlassian products
because they resell them. We also have people here who's first
response is a derisive comment about the tools we use.
My vote is for Contegix to continue the great job they have done
and seeing as infra has not decided anything or contacted me after
I attended the last board meeting, I am going to go ahead with an
official proposal starting with our PMC to let each PMC decide on
their infrastructure needs and use whomever they like working on
the integration strategies and policies that will make everyone
comfortable. Until that time I don't think it's prudent because
you will potentially jeopardize the infrastructure used by
everyone using Maven.
Jason.

Brett
