Hi all-
A hypothetical question for all of you add-on product developers out there...
I am doing some high-level thinking (which I will be sharing soon)
about the future architecture for add-on product data in plone.org,
and one question that's occurred to me is whether we are at a point
where we can deprecate our POI issue trackers in favor of
externally-hosted issue trackers, such as those provided by Github.
Is anybody on this list still actively using their POI/PSC issue
tracker on plone.org? If we were to set a "deprecation date" with,
say, a couple months' notice, would that pose a major hardship?
I'd love to hear your thoughts. To repeat: no decisions have been
made, I'm just floating a trial balloon.
Hi Jon and others,
I don't always read the mailing lists every day or week, so I am coming
to this a bit late. :-) I will add some thoughts here as the current
maintainer of Poi.
I think the Poi trackers on plone.org work just fine. I am not aware of
big problems. If you do have problems, please report them in this
thread or in this fine issue tracker on plone.org. :-)
http://plone.org/products/poi/issues
That said, the issue trackers on github work just fine too. I use both.
I work for Zest Software and we use Poi on our projects site. I know
two other Dutch Plone companies that use it too. So Poi is not going
away or be unmaintained any time soon.
So: I see no immediate reason to deprecate the Poi trackers on
plone.org. But I don't mind much if that does happen.
I could probably write an exporter, or give feedback and assistance to
someone else doing that. I did not immediately notice an issue importer
on github though. Is there such a tool on github or on other popular
platforms that offer issue trackers?
Cheers,
