Re: [stp-dev] SVN Structure
|
I am much in favour of not duplicating any work and I think that
the sooner we move to the new structure, the better, in order to
avoid changes later on. This is particularly relevant for our
upcoming commit of plugins to the STP-IM repository where
everything has been thought of with the new structure in mind. So
my question is, can we go ahead now with the new structure or must
we go with the old structure and change it at a later date? Suppose
we go with the new structure on a project-by-project basis, would
this impact the build system and if so, how much? If there's some
tweaking to be done for the projects following the new structure, I
would rather do that than change our code structure to be in line
with the old layout (and then change it again later :) ).
Oisin, what is your take on this? Is this doable or would it entail
too many complications on the STP/Ganymede release plan?
If we are re-organizing our SVN we should do it as soon as we can. There
is the M5 Ganymede release on Feb 20th, so let's do it before then,
provided
everyone agrees.
Adrian, could you summarize the layouts we discussed in a bugzilla?
This will
be the focus of questions, etc. Then I will check with webmaster to
see what
level of help we need from them to get things going.
Another thing we need to organize is the delivery process from the
individual
components to a rolled-up release. We've a number of options. We can
build
the distribution using component-specific update sites, or we can
build it
using tagged source code, or we can build it using specific download
sites.\
The key is that we all do it the same way. My initial thoughts are
around
having mini update sites per component, which are rolled up into a
merged
top level update site. Any thoughts on this?
cheers
