Re: [GSoC 2013] contribute to django-deployer for deploying django to PaaS easily

2013-05-03 Thread Andrew Godwin
Hi Nate, I guess I'm personally just burnt by the PaaS model in general - it's a very limited-scope way of modelling applications, I've never had it work for anything serious, and in particular every attempt I've seen at something that targets multiple PaaS hosts ultimately ends up only having

While I share some of Andrew's concerns, I do think this is still a fairly good topic for GSoC. However, I think the only way it could happen would be if Nate wants to mentor the project; Nate, can you mentor? If so, you should hook up with Andrew and make sure you apply to be a mentor so we can

I feel like the deployment problem is one that cannot be solved in a mere 12 weeks and I'm not sure django-deployer is the right approach to encourage for this - it sits at the wrong level of abstraction and looks pretty fragile, and I'd be hesitant to put any sort of official emphasis on it

Hi Russell and Florian, A bit late to the party, but hopefully there's still time for this GSoC proposal to be considered. I'm the maintainer of django-deployer. It was initiated at the DjangoCon 2012 sprint and recently revisited at the PyCon 2013

Hi, aside from what Russell already pointed out, I would like to add a few points: * You list "Refactor for Expandability" as last on your schedule. I think it should be at the start, eg compare different solutions like GAE, heroku, Gondor, find a common subset and then write the backends

Hi Colin, I've taken a look at your proposal, and I've got some concerns. Firstly, I'm not familiar with Django-deploy; but from a quick inspection of the project page it doesn't appear that anyone in the Django core team is on the committee list. In order for you to have this proposal accepted
