Re: disabling edit feature in https://projects-new.apache.org/
while working on missing Forrest info, I'm now completely convinced we should not edit json but completely generate them from existing DOAP and project.a.o contents then I'll immediately disable the edit feature: this can easily be reverted later And I'll add a link to existing information on how to add a new TLP Regards, Hervé Le dimanche 12 avril 2015 18:39:57 Hervé BOUTEMY a écrit : > Hi, > > I'm working on https://projects-new.apache.org/ , trying to figure out the > whole information flow for informations about our projects: I like this new > site, but IMHO we can't switch until we're clear on that. > > > And it seems the edit feature currently cause inconsistencies since it edits > site's svn simplified json content, instead of DOAP which is AFAIK the > current project description standard [1] > > > There are only few projects that used the feature, then it's not too late to > fix the issue before it gets worse and people are lost. > > > IMHO, adding a link to this DOAP page in projects-new's about page would do > the job = explain people how to add their project (perhaps some additionnal > instructions are required, I'm not sure) > > WDYT? > > Regards, > > Hervé > > [1] http://projects.apache.org/doap.html

These libraries are solely used by developers who work on the internals of AOO. One developer typically download the libraries once and then check from time to time for updates. The binaries are relative big, but the download numbers really low.

Re: Google Code shutting down Jan 2016
Pivot is using Apache Extras basically for "source-code for projects that can't..." because of licensing issues. So, my feeling is we are different than AOO. ~Roger Whitcomb Apache Pivot PMC Chair On 4/13/15 6:48 AM, Stian Soiland-Reyes wrote: How much of Apache Extras is "binary dumping ground" (as used by OO builds), and how much is just "source-code for projects that can't/won't quite fit into ASF" (e.g. for licensing reasons or lack of community)?

Atlassian's BitBucket likewise provides both source code and binary hosting - here binaries are easier to attach independently. As I said, I also found BinTray a great way to do independent downloads, with the optional capability of Maven repository with mirroring to Central as a nice thing for those still doing Java/Groovy/Clojure/Scala etc. It's still "all eggs in one company's basket" of course.. but then so is SourceForge.. and at the moment I would be more worried about SourceForge disappearing than GitHub or Atlassian.

Re: Help! Slide template fixup needed!
Jean-Frederic ran into the same problem as well, and suggested a fix: Simply take each slide, cut the text block of bullets, and then paste back into the slide. Save, and run thru slide show. This worked for me - both for the section break slides as well as the main text slides, this removes the transition and also makes the section breaks appear. Nick's alternate suggestion is to simply export the preso to PDF, and then run through the PDF to do it. Separately, here's hoping that it looks ok on the different projectors - reportedly session rooms default to 4:3 format. - Shane On 4/12/15 3:23 PM, Shane Curcuru wrote: > So I migrated everything to Nick's pretty Austin template, and didn't > realize all the transitions were in there.

Re: Google Code shutting down Jan 2016
How much of Apache Extras is "binary dumping ground" (as used by OO builds), and how much is just "source-code for projects that can't/won't quite fit into ASF" (e.g. for licensing reasons or lack of community)? As long as you have the source code, then you can attach binaries to tagged releases in GitHub. Atlassian's BitBucket likewise provides both source code and binary hosting - here binaries are easier to attach independently. As I said, I also found BinTray a great way to do independent downloads, with the optional capability of Maven repository with mirroring to Central as a nice thing for those still doing Java/Groovy/Clojure/Scala etc. It's still "all eggs in one company's basket" of course.. but then so is SourceForge.. and at the moment I would be more worried about SourceForge disappearing than GitHub or Atlassian.
