[Tcllib-devel] Heads Up! Transition! CVS/SF --> Fossil/core.tcl.tk

[Andreas K. <and...@ac...>]

Hi all.

As a quick heads up, the CVS repositories of Tcllib and its relatives
(Tklib, etc.) have moved from SourceForge to http://core.tcl.tk.

In doing so they have been converted to Fossil [1] as well.

The only exception is the BWidget CVS which contains a timewarp Roy
Keene (our conversion guy) has to straighten out first before we can
put the resulting Fossil up on core also. That should happen sometime
next week.

As of this moment people should not commit to the CVS at SF anymore.
(I have not disabled commit access, but will ignore commits there from on).

Some things have __not__ moved. Yet.

Most important: We are still using the Bug Tracker's at SourceForge.
Less so:           We are still using the Files system of SourceForge
to distribute releases.

General location
    http://core.tcl.tk

Specifically:
    http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib
    http://core.tcl.tk/tklib
    http://core.tcl.tk/tclapps
    http://core.tcl.tk/tclbench
    http://core.tcl.tk/widget
    http://core.tcl.tk/mclistbox

Regarding the accounts ...
    All admins [3] of the SourceForge project have accounts in the new
repositories.

    Nobody else of the original developers has accounts in the
repositories at the moment.

    I ask that everybody committed to continue work on Tcllib and
relatives to contact us,
    the admins, through the tcllib-devel list here so that we may
(re-)create accounts for them.

Side note on that: The repositories are in what fossil calls a
login-group. Logging into one of them will log you into all, and if
you change your password in one of them it will change in all the
others also.


Ok, I hope that provides enough information to everybody.
If not, please do not hesitate to ask.
