Hi all. There is a general consensus that the Fedora-specific services hosted on the elvis server (development of packages like `anaconda`, `system-config-*`, etc, and translations) should be moved over to Fedora infrastructure. Why? Because we will be able to better maintain them, hook them up with the Fedora Account System, increase their functionality, and lower the barrier for contributions to packages hosted there. Also, in addition to CVS, maintainers can host their projects on Subversion, Mercurial, or git. The Fedora Localization Project (FLP) will begin maintaining translations hosted on `cvs.fedoraproject.org`, and continue for the rest of the Fedora SCMs. We are working on a new interface for translation statistics, which supports multiple SCMs (working prototype (comments, suggestions, welcome) @ [1]). We are planning to make a mass move in the next week or two. This email is just a heads up. All `CVS/Root` files can be changed with a simple script. If you need to stay on elvis for some reason, please let us know so we can work this out. -d [1]: http://publictest4.fedora.redhat.com/ -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos@xxxxxxxxxx, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."
