Time for community-managed infrastructure for TDE stable?

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

 



TDE Devs,

I hesitate to send this to a do-ocracy when I don't have the time
to do it myself but I think this warrants a ping.

I rate myself as a software engineer with an excellent track record
in (proprietary) database managers, AI, and systems software.  I've
designed software, lead software teams, and picked up other's failing
projects and literally worked and slept in my office to ship on time.

But I would never have thought that what Tim did was possible.  The
solo fork and improvement of TDE was a massive undertaking in which
Tim succeeded brilliantly.  Whether or not Tim ever touches TDE again
I have an enormous respect for his courage, talent, and achievement.

But now others have taken up the mantle.

The original TDE infrastructure has been broken in various ways
for a long time.  The stable mirrors have been unable to update
for eight months.  The trinitydesktop.org domain expires in March
and there is no guarantee that the original TDE infrastucture will
continue to stumble along even that long.

TDE 14.0.7 is currently in PSB.  Waiting for 14.0.8 might be too
late.  I would like to see TDE 14.0.7, either when it goes stable
or soon thereafter, on community-managed infrastructure.

--Mike
