kvmtool: suggestion for a website and a bugtracker

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

As written elsewhere, I think that kvmtool doesn't get all the attention
it deserves and it might be related to the following personal
observations. I'm sorry if these topics have already been discussed
somewhere, but a quick search didn't show up any similar discussion.

The first results for kvmtool on a search engine redirect to the Clear
Containers' GitHub, while the official git repository is hosted on
git.kernel.org. Several kvmtool repositories exist on GitHub, and
telling which repository is the official one is indeed difficult. A
kvmtool organization even exists on GitHub, but I can't tell if it's
related to the project. I personally think that a website (or even a
single webpage) would be great, at least to provide this piece of
information.

Incidentally, I find that reporting issues through e-mail isn't
convenient (and makes contributions difficult for non-kernel
developers). It's kind of difficult to know what are the current issues,
and even know the state of past issues. A bugtracker would definitely be
a great option in my opinion.

Finally, kvmtool shares the KVM's mailing list. The static HTML pages of
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/ seem to be the only way to browse the
archive, which is quite painful. Originally, it made sense to have a
single mailing list for KVM and kvmtool since they both were part of the
Linux kernel. kvmtool is now an independent userland project and I
wonder if a separate mailing list wouldn't be more convenient.

What do you think?

Thanks
