- We need to look at the big issues and make sure we've got a good
handle on them. For me, these include (in rough order of priority from
my perspective):
* Multiple ISPs load balancing
* Features to enable building a personal firewall with shorewall
* IPv6
My ideas are the following:
1. Declare Shorewall alive but feature frozen,only bug fixes, until
we can organize and get the needed coders,especially some good bash
coders and an iptables geek (¿anyone?)
After 2.4.0 is out...
2.I can take care of a mirror and enrole me to the website and
documentation. team.(please¡)
I think that we already have enough mirrors -- I think that the issue of
where to place the rsync server and how to keep the mirrors and
sourceforge synced needs addressing. Basically, we need someone to be
Webmaster.
Since you are volunteering ...
I've attached the simple scripts that I use to publish to Sourceforge
and to my own server (shorewall.net AKA lists.shorewall.net AKA
cvs.shorewall.net AKA rsync.shorewall.net).
The way that this works currently is that I run 'publish' which:
a) Converts files from XML to HTML if the original file is XML.
b) Uses SCP to copy the file(s) to my server and to sourceforge (you
will need a user account on Sourceforge).
All of the current documentation and the website files are in CVS
(Shorewall-Website/ and Shorewall-docs2/).
Possibly Mike Noyes can help you with coming up with a new arrangement;
he has offered to help with things at the Sourceforge end. I'm uncertain
how to set up a publishing scheme based at Sourceforge that can keep the
mirrors updated.
One of the flukes with the HTML documentation is that part of the files
have an .htm extension and part have .html. The attached 'publish'
script depends on a ../Website directory to be populated with the .htm
files. The script that I use to build Shorewall releases
(http://shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/contrib/makeshorewall.sh) includes a
list of the .htm files -- that's a better approach but I just never got
around to adding it to the publish script (if it ain't broke, don't fix it).
Both the publish and makeshorewall scripts require recent Docbook XML
tools to be installed.
I use XXE (Xmlmind XML Editor -- http://www.xmlbind.com/xmleditor) to
edit the Docbook XML files. The standard version is free and it's a nice
WYSIWYG editor.
Note that there are two different files used for the Left Frame on the
website -- one for Sourceforge and one for the other sites (Sourceforge
has Logo requirements for the sites that they host).
I publish those files using an scp command rather than the publish script.
Example for Sourceforge:
scp Shorewall_sfindex_frame.htm
shorewall.sf.net:/home/groups/s/sh/shorewall/htdocs/Shorewall_index_frame.htm
3. Files,mailist,and cvs stuff should be transfered to SF and a
help needed item opened.
Nod -- we will move the mailing lists when Sourceforge has upgraded
their Mailman installation (I'm currently running a later release of
mailman so our files aren't compatible). CVS will be moved after 2.4.0.
4. creat a more conservative release schema. IMHO shorewall have most
of the needed features,but ipv6 is a good new one.
That is in line with Paul's recommendation.

That all seems fairly reasonable. Tom, would you mind summarising for the -devel list all of the offers you've received so we can take stock? Ok -- I'll try. I've received several hundred emails today and I'm a bit overwhelmed. I've had many offers for mirror hosting -- I don't see additional mirrors as a priority at this point. I've been trying to steer those with a real interest to the Leaf and Shorewall development lists where they can participate in these discussions. a) You (Paul) have been added as an administrator at SF (Thanks!). b) Mike Noyes who works closely with the SF staff has offered his help on that end. c) Charles Steinkuehler (of Leaf fame) has offered hosting services and may have some time to code (Sorry I haven't gotten back to you Charles -- as you can imagine, this has been a wild day). d) Cristian has offered to help with Documentation/Web site management as has Alex Wilms. e) Jim Richardson has offered to head development. f) Ron Shannon has offered operational support and has surplus storage and bandwidth. g) Ian Allen has offered to help code (He also has two ADSL lines so he can test the Multi-ISP support in 2.3/2.4). I hope that I haven't forgotten anyone -- If I have, please speak up. I think we have a core group here who can carry things forward. I'm available help get things transferred off of my server but I think the less that I have to say about how this plays out from here, the better. -Tom -- Tom Eastep\ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
