Intrastructure discussion

We need to discuss the project infrastructure.

Do we need a CVS, SVN?
Do we use source forge for individual projects?
What web functionality do we need?
- Forums
- Wikis
- Mailing lists

Balanced between what we can do ourselves in terms of manpower and using shortcuts like existing solutions.

I think that at the very least we should have our own central website with forums and news releases.

Having forums here on amigans feels a bit akward.

@orgin

Yes we should use a either CVS, or SVN repositories.
Setting up a (CVS/SVN) server is relatively easy, however every services that comes around is another matter of thing and except someone has a strong experience and will in hosting this himself maybe should we use an existing repository (google, sf.net, etc.).

@abalaban

I rarely goes to SourceForge... Just because I found that site soooo slow to load.

It might be a good idea to create a new "Environment System" for this project..

Maybe called something like OS4Base, OS4Open,... To keep the same type of structure than OS4Depot ... With the same kind of Scheme Color...

A dedicated Source Repository (various options/formats exist to achieve this)...

That Env Sys could contain various sections like:
-- A Repository for Source Code itself.
-- A Section for Documentations/Guides (as more than one person could work on the same docs, including eventual Translation).
-- A Section for Bugs Reports of Alpha/Beta Versions

Etc...
