Hello,
We
received the first commiters status on the newly created sensiNact
project. We sh=ould soon provide the initial contribution for IP review. We just had a small meeting with the team and we have some
questions.
Our project is mainly composed of, at least, 2 larges
subprojects, i.e., a client and a server. Thus, we would like to know
what is the better way to proceed for the IP review. Should we submit
the two subprojects or should we do it incrementally (the server and then
the client). I know there is the
parallel IP process we could ask for but I don't know if this is relevant for this case.
To
accelerate the IP review, we are not going to submit all the modules in
the initial contribution. It will also let us put in the right format
our existing code and still start the IP review process. Is a new module
(or in the future a new feature) must always be sent for IP review?
According to the
Eclipse Legal Process,
we could just submit a minimal set of code of the project (initial commit on page 2)
and then commit everything else using the normal process (page 1,
Figure 1).
And the last question. We have at least 2 subprojects. We saw that it is possible to create new repositories (cf.
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Git#Creating_a_new_repository).
Can we ask for others repositories to host subprojects (e.g., the
client, the server, etc.)? It will ease the project management because
we are not using the same technologies on the subprojects. Or should we
request for a new Eclipse project in order to have a separated GIT
repository?
