Congrats Thanks Francesc on the new more liberal licence!
And Josh, 'scopatz' is indeed me.
Cool. Done.
Could you also add Batuhan and Henry, as they indicated an interest in
helping out.
Batuhan has been added since he added himself as a watcher of the repository.
I don't have a user name for Henry, though.
I have also started a PyTables group on convore, if we need to discuss
things there. https://convore.com/pytables/
Interesting. I've never used convore before, but it may make sense to move
all of our discussions there in the short-term to not overwhelm the users
list. Any thoughts? Would people rather keep the discussion here? (We've
gained half a dozen watchers who are not involved in this conversation. They
may have found out about the move via the list, in which case keeping things
visible may be a sensible goal).
We should probably have a discussion on what needs to be done in the
near term and where we think things are going.
Agreed. I've added everything that I had scribbled on a sheet of paper since
Friday as github issues. Feel free to add your own, comment on others, etc.
#6 Schedule first governance meeting could definitely stand to be commented
on by everyone, both to when how (IRC, skype, webex, ...). It might even
make sense to set up something on doodle.com.
Be Well
Anthony
Cheers,

Hey Josh,

First of all, an amazing thanks to Francesc for making PyTables Pro
available!! This is a great opportunity to help boost the interest in
PyTables and keep it growing now that it's being kicked out of the
proverbial nest. :)
:)
I had mentioned to him that the newly-created governance system put in
place by the Jenkins (formerly Hudson) developers might be a good model,
and
was hoping that something similar would be amenable to this group. I
definitely second Steven Bamford's idea of making the code available on
github, but it shouldn't be necessary for it to belong to one person.
Instead, I created a PyTables organization:
https://github.com/PyTables
and pushed the trunk branch created via:
git svn clone --authors authors.txt -s
http://www.pytables.org/svn/pytables/PyTablesPro/
to:
https://github.com/PyTables/PyTables
Everyone who's expressed interest in maintenance duties should be added
to
the organization, and I'll turn over ownership to Francesc until we've
decided how things move forward.
I like your solution very much. Thanks for moving forward so fast :)
I'm
fine to have ownership for the time being, but I prefer if other person
can
take it over. Or, cannot we have several owners at the same time?
Definitely. There can be any number of owners, and you need not be one of
them! :)
I tried to find the people who had mentioned wanting to take an active role
on
github and found these:
• avalentino (Antonio Valentino)
• bamford
• scopatz (Anthony Scopatz)
• wesm (Wes McKinney)
Can you confirm that you are who I thought you were, not that some poor
githubber
is wondering what this pytables thing is. And if there are any other
github
users, please speak up.
If the organization isn't the right way to go, we can delete it
completely.
No harm done. If we want to keep it around, a first topic of discussion
might be what to do with the PyTables (non-Pro) svn. Does it get added
to a
separate repository for historical/practical reasons?
Well, I plan to maintain pytables.org for at least a year, so I think we
can
go directly with Pro in github, and in case anybody wants the 'old'
PyTables
std, it can always create a new branch anywhere.
Understood and agreed.
PyTablesStd? A second topic might be whether or not maintenance is
wanted/needed for python-blosc and carray:
https://github.com/FrancescAlted/python-blosc
https://github.com/FrancescAlted/carray
I *do* have the purpose to continue with Blosc and carray as my toy
projects, so I think I can still be the maintainer for those if you don't
mind ;) But it would be a good idea to migrate the Blosc repository to
github too. Added to my 'todo' list.
And I'm sure we'll find any number of other topics to keep us busy.
In any event, here's to PyTables' good health!
Sure! Thanks a lot for you job!
Gladly, but that's enough for one Friday evening, CEST.
Cheers,
~Josh
