Re: [udig-devel] uDig Community

Hi,

As far as I am concerned there is no need to have a single community repository.  We can create you a neo4j community repository.  But we do want to keep the number of repositories down so that managing them doesn't get to be a problem.  So for simple plugins it is probably nice to add to the common repo but for larger ones I think seperate repos are probably a good idea.

Hi,

I'm interested in adding the Neo4j catalog plugin to the udig-community project on gitorious, but have a few questions. The code is currently hosted on github at http://github.com/svzdvd/net.refractions.udig.catalog.neo4j. In my local git branch have renamed the project and packages to the new eu.udig standard since that seems appropriate, and wanted to move the project to udig-community at the same time (2 birds with one stone). I now realize that udig-community is a single git project, which is perhaps not ideal for what appears to be a collection of relatively un-related contributions. This also (probably) makes it quite hard for me to merge my git repository (with history intact) into the udig-community 'mega git repository'.

The main udig project appears to be a collection of sub-projects, which I think makes a lot of sense. The 'uDig Commuity' appears to also be a collection, but with only one sub-project 'udig-community'. This does not make a lot of sense to me.

I see also that I have no commit access to udig-community, even though I appear to have access to udig-platform itself.

So my questions:
  • Can I get commit access to udig-community (And 'uDig Community' too)? (I am a member of 'udig-developers' so perhaps adding that group to the udig community is good enough?)
  • Can I add the neo4j spatial as a separate sub-project under 'uDig Community' instead of following the 'old' standard of having subdirectories within the udig-community project?
  • Can we consider changing the entire udig-community project layout to follow the separate sub-project approach? This is obviously harder to do than the above suggestions, and is not a requirement for me, at all, but seems like a good idea :-)
Regards, Craig
