Hi, I would like to see tiddlywiki moved to github. However I have two (well three) major concers:
-- What happens to the contributor code? Chris indicated that contributors can move their code as they wish. For me that means some will move, some will stay, and some may move elsewhere. I think this contributes to the fragmentation of tiddlywiki even more. I often have difficulty locating plugins, but if also the contributors archive from trac/svn diffuse, how am I able to find components back? If on github there are a lot of tiddlywiki repositories, how do I know about them? And how do I know which dependencies I need to build a specific vertical? I am really not keen on fragmentation of the repository! -- Lost history. I think just moving to github without history is a tremendous waste of knowledge and effort. I can see two relatively easy solutions: 1) Import history with svn2git and just continue with development (my preference). 2) Ditch history, keep trac/svn online AND start on github with a new MAJOR version of tiddlywiki. Then it is very clear for humans that a break in the source happened. -- trac tickets etc. Just loosing them would be a waste of work. Unfortunately I don't know about a good, distributed ticket tracker for git. I think minimally the trac infomation needs to be mirrored read-only into a git repository. then it can be searched, and old tickets can be referenced from a new ticket system. Just keeping the old trac system running is inferior I think because once it will stop and the tickets are lost. An option may be http://fossil-scm.org/ . This has a distributed ticket tracker, and could even replace git. yours, Vlak -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
