Hi, Looks great. I just submitted a lightning talk about App Within Minutes (similar as one we proposed last year but did not make the cut).
Ludovic 2012/12/21 Sergiu Dumitriu <[email protected]> > Hi Devs, > > As you might already know, I’m co-organizing a “Community Development > and Marketing” devroom [0] at FOSDEM 2013 [1]. I would like to propose a > 30 minute talk for this devroom, about how we organize/centralize our > infrastructure via XWiki applications, such as the IRC bot, the SVN and > GIT applications etc, thanks to XWiki’s powerful development > capabilities. More precisely: > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Title: > Coping with the proliferation of tools within your community > > Abstract: > Following modern practices for software development and community > management requires a plethora of tools, from source code handling to > means of communication. Every tool has its purpose, and is necessary for > things to run smoothly. Discarding any of them from the workflow is not > an option. Yet, keeping track of everything can be overwhelming, > especially for new members of your community who have to learn not just > the internals of the code, but also the chock-full of tools around it, > and the rules associated with each of them. > > One of the solutions we found for our community is to implement a > “developers’ wiki”, where most of the tools are either integrated, or, > for the more simple ones, implemented directly in our wiki. In this talk > I’ll quickly explain how a development wiki works. I’ll then present our > wiki-centered infrastructure, which brings together the SCM repository, > mailing lists, issue trackers, the IRC/XMPP channels, even lower level > tools for virtual machine management and resource consumption > monitoring, and offers simple solutions for blog and forum hosting, > voting, extensions hosting, and much more. Finally, I’ll show how this > approach for infrastructure management improves the workflows within our > community and facilitates the integration of newcomers. > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Please let me know if you have any comments/suggestions. > > Also, do consider submitting other proposals relevant for the theme of > the devroom. The deadline is this Sunday, December 23rd. > > [0] https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2012-November/001656.html > [1] http://fosdem.org/2013/ > -- > Sergiu Dumitriu > http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > -- Ludovic Dubost Founder and CEO Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
