i agree here. i like our fairly flat (and lax) access structure. if we trust you to go writing bits of e.org's website - we trust you to write code - if that is your skill, or to just know to keep your hands off what you aren't good at. people make mistakes and if someone who was given access in order to do www goes and starts screwing with code so it breaks - a few reprimands on the mailing lists should cure that really fast, and if it doesn't - access to cvs can be removed (and will be) as if we can't trust them - why keep access to www? i like our own and flat trust structure. it's simple. it works as we are not a massive organisation. it allows or fluid movement and help wherever it is needed quickly. it shows we have faith in our fellow humans :) > On Fri, Aug 1, 2008 at 5:27 PM, The Rasterman Carsten Haitzler > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > so eventually went back to an old original method. www lives in cvs - u > > want to work on it, u get cvs access. committing means it auto-updates. if > > u need to test the php locally setting up a local apache and mod-php, allow > > symlinks outside of the www doc dir to point to your homedir's cvs checkout > > of the www site, worsk just fine. it's simple and works. the php is also > > very simple. the main www site is meant to be simple and relatively static > > - the wiki, and other sites (trac, bugzilla etc.) are where the dynamic > > stuff happens... > > There is another advantage to keeping the site in CVS: you avoid > segmenting the community into artificial sub-communities, or trying to > place technical barriers around social structures.
