Thank you to everyone who commented in the parent thread. Robert feels we're ready to go ahead and commission the new commitfest app for the upcoming 'fest beginning 15 July, and he's asked me to do the honours. So, effective immediately, please treat http://commitfest.postgresql.org as your authoritative source for commitfests going forward. The app is written and maintained by Robert Haas, and the source code is located at: web: http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=pgcommitfest.git git: git://git.postgresql.org/git/pgcommitfest.git Your login details for the app == your community login == your wiki login. The overall workflow, structure and layout of the commitfest is pretty much the same. The only material difference you'll notice is that you're filling out forms with discrete fields instead of delicately shunting curly braces and pipes around in a giant textarea. Closed commitfests from the 8.4 cycle will continue to live in their current form on the wiki. The wiki page for 2009-First will shortly be replaced by a brief boilerplate pointing to the new app. The patches currently on that page will be copied to an archive page at http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/CommitFest_2009-First_Archive. I would prefer to change the CommitFestOpen and CommitFestInProgress redirects on the wiki to point at the app, but wiki redirects can only link to other articles in the same wiki; external URLs are not allowed. So both of these pages will continue to point at 2009-First, which will instruct the user to go to the app. I will be working my way through the Developer Information pages on the wiki, updating as necessary. If you notice a page on the wiki with out-of-date information regarding commitfests, feel free to ping me about it (or fix it yourself; it is a wiki after all).
