AW: [Devil-linux-develop] sourceforge

[Gunther S. \(M. GmbH\) <gs...@ma...>]

Hello Heiko,
hello rest of the list (who are you... ?),


In my oppinion there are two possible solutions:

a) the use of an alternative to sourceforge.net:
- http://www.sourcefubar.net
- Tigris.org
- Savannah.org
- BerliOS.de

Has anyone made any experiences with one of those ?


b) We could run our own sourceforge-like service using the
sourceforge-software or any other nice cvs-tool.

At the moment the traffic on the mainlab-downloadserver is very low. Have a
look: http://support.rackbase.de/ftpstats/ftp.de.devil-linux.org/


We could transfer the whole domain (devil-linux.org) to the mainlab-server.
We are running mailman as mailinglist-software so the future of the list is
safe.

What's our  "own server"  ??  Are you talking about a physical server?
Well... we could offer free serverhousing for a one or two HE (= "U")
machine in our racks.

>Another problem is the huge traffic which is caused by the many

^^^^^no problem at all. As long as devillinux doesn't consume all our
bandwidth :-) up to 50 Gigs a month is absolutely ok - no question :-)



What are we going to do now ?

+ Serverhousing @ www.rackbase.de +

Betreff: [Devil-linux-develop] sourceforge


Hello Folks,

I think most of you have heard about the concerns of the future of
Sourceforge.

We're currently thinking about moving all our services to other
providers or even to our own server.
Do you have any suggestions?

Where should we move?
Which software should we use? We need CVS of course, some kind of Web
based project management, bug tracking, feature requests, all this stuff
SF offers to us.
What to do with the mailing list? (If we use a own server, this would
not be a problem).

Where can I place our own server? I will ask at my company, but I can't
put a download server there.

Another problem is the huge traffic which is caused by the many
downloads of Devil-Linux, we can't use only one download location like
the FTP server which was provided by Mainlab GmbH (http://www.mainlab.de).
